Join us aboard in Portobelo, Panama. A historic and picturesque harbor once Spain’s primary town for loading treasures aboard gallon ships destine for Spain.
Walk the old harbor streets in this sleep village and visit the still intact fortresses guarding against pirates and others.
Depart Portobelo in the morning for a 6-8 hour sail to the San Blas Islands. A scenic sail along the mountainous jungle coast line. Arrive in the island of Porvenir San Blas to make office entree into the park. Park fee is $22 per person* The price is subject to change.
Latter we shift anchorage to a small nearby island for some water activities.
These days are spent sailing around the beautiful coconut palmed islands with white sand beaches and crystal clear waters. Mornings are spent snorkeling the underwater reefs with colorful tropic fishes or walking the beaches, kayaking or paddling. A quick swim first thing in the morning is the best way to wake up!
As we explore the islands you will marvel at the colors or the water and the exotic ambience of this unspoiled, undeveloped area inhabited only by native Indians.
We will also visit indigenous Indians at their island thatched roofed houses. They live a sustenance lifestyle on the out islands collecting coconuts and fishing the reefs. The women are typically busy making their traditional cloths
and artistic “molas”. These are offered to you as souvenirs.
Nearer the mainland we will visit an Indian village and see how they live in community. Near one of these villages we can take a small boat up the river that supplies much of the fresh water. With many species of exotic wildlife and birds
to observe.
On our next to last day we will return to Portobelo or nearly Porto Lindo to disembark, and catch your transports onward. Many people who haven’t experienced Panama City, especially the revitalized old town of Casco Viejo will
enjoy spreading a few days there. Located within the waterfront area of the city, Casco Viejo offers restored colonial architecture and fabulous bars, restaurants, hotels and great shopping. Also, historical museums in this safe area of Panama City.
We call this our SURF & TURF option. Spend a few days in Panama City taking in the sights. It can be arranged before or after the cruise for a truly fantastic experience.
