Panama Yacht Charter

Located in the heart of the Americas, surrounded by both the Caribbean Sea and the Pacific Ocean, lies Panama. With a plethora of deserted islands, chilled Caribbean vibes on one side and monster Pacific swells on the other, Panama sits poised to deliver the best of beach and sea life to all who visit her shores. A whole new world begins at the water's edge. Seize it by scuba diving with whale sharks in the Pacific, snorkel along the rainbow reefs of Bocas del Toro or setting sail in the indigenous territory of Guna Yala.

Panama is a narrow, snake-shaped stretch of land that divides oceans and continents. It has long been one of the world’s greatest crossroads, far before the construction of its famous canal.

Though its historical ties to the United States have led to an exaggerated perception of the country as an American colony, Spanish, African, West Indian, Chinese, Indian, European and several of the least assimilated indigenous communities in the region have all played a role in the creation of the most sophisticated, open-minded and outward-looking society in Central America. The wildlife-viewing and adventure options are excellent.

Stretching 80km from Panama City in the south to Colón in the north, the Panama Canal is a work of engineering brilliance. One of the largest and most ambitious human endeavours, the waterway allows massive vessels to traverse the isthmus in less than one day.

East of the canal spreads the rainforest of Parque Nacional Soberanía, home to monkeys, sloths, jaguars, crocodiles and many other. Delve into the park’s humming, humid atmosphere on one of its many accessible pathways, discovering unparalleled biodiversity.

Colón, at the Atlantic entrance to the canal and only a boat or train or bus ride away from Panama City, seems like a different world from the capital, which is a city known for its vibrance and buzz.

Other highlights of the region for more remote cruising experiences, include the San Blas islands and the Pearl islands.

Temperatures in Panama remain high all year round. The dry season runs from February to April, which is a great time to visit.

Panama is a wonderfully diverse and exciting country. No adventure aboard a luxury superyacht would miss out on the opportunity to traverse one of the greatest wonders of the modern world - the Panama Canal.
