The Islands of Bocas del Toro: A Traveler’s Guide to Panama’s Caribbean Gem
What makes Bocas del Toro special is the way locals and expats live side by side, creating an open, welcoming energy and a refreshing blend of perspectives rooted in a shared love for nature. To truly know Bocas is to explore it by boat—the region reveals itself through its mangrove inlets, surf breaks, snorkeling spots, and quiet, sandy coves, many only accessible by water. It’s lively yet still feels off the beaten path, with a collection of close-knit islands that offer something for every kind of traveler. And for those chasing the dream of staying in an overwater bungalow, Bocas offers that barefoot luxury—no long-haul flight to the Maldives required.
