Escape to the Pacific aboard a private catamaran reserved exclusively for your group.

This private experience includes round-trip transportation from your hotel, snacks, refreshments and a dedicated Panama Your Way host who accompanies your group throughout the experience.
Only from Riviera Pacifica / Playa Blanca
Discover one of the most enjoyable ways to experience Panama’s Riviera Pacífica with a private catamaran adventure designed exclusively for your group.
Your experience begins at your hotel, where Panama Your Way will pick you up and take care of the journey to Buenaventura Marina. A Panama Your Way host will accompany your group throughout the excursion, helping ensure that everything runs smoothly from departure to your return.
Once aboard your private catamaran, cruise along Panama’s Pacific coast toward Farallón Island. Surrounded by open water and dramatic coastal scenery, the island provides the perfect setting for a few hours away from the resorts.
When the catamaran anchors near the island, the choice is yours. Swim in the Pacific, explore beneath the surface with snorkeling gear, take out a kayak or paddleboard, relax on a float, or simply enjoy the catamaran and the scenery with your group. The vessel offers several areas for relaxing, including shaded seating, open deck space and easy access to the water.
Snacks and refreshments are included, so there is nothing to organize once your day begins. Whether you are traveling with family, friends or celebrating a special occasion, having the entire catamaran reserved for your group creates a much more relaxed and personal experience.
After your time on the water, sail back to Buenaventura Marina where your Panama Your Way transportation will be waiting to take you back to your hotel.
Note: Private experience only. Minimum 10 guests.
