Snorkel colorful reefs, relax on untouched beaches, and experience the beauty of islands few travelers ever see.

San Blas Islands
If you choose our optional roundtrip transportation service, your driver will pick you up from your Panama City lodging between 5:00–5:30 am. The ride takes about 2.5–3 hours through winding jungle roads to the port of Cartí. Guests arriving with their own 4x4 vehicle must arrive at the port by 8:30 am.
At the port, things may seem a little unorganized, but the Kuna community has everything under control. After check-in, you’ll board your lancha (boat). The ride to your first island may be bumpy and occasionally include stops at other islands to drop off or pick up passengers.

Dinner will be freshly prepared by your Guna hosts, followed by a peaceful evening on the island.
