Your Adventure Itinerary:
Your island-hopping experience begins with an early morning hotel pickup in Panama City. Relax and take in the scenic views as you travel through the lush Guna Yala region to the Port of Carti. Along the way, you'll have a chance to stop at a supermarket to grab any personal items, such as snacks, drinks, or fruit.
Upon arrival at the port, meet your local San Blas guide and board your traditional “lancha” boat. Enjoy the exhilarating ride across the open sea—feel the ocean breeze and occasional sea spray while taking in the stunning coastal views.
Your first stop is Isla Perro, a picture-perfect tropical island with swaying palm trees and turquoise waters. Here, you can swim, relax in the shade, or explore the island. Snorkel around a fascinating sunken shipwreck, where schools of fish dart through the coral-covered remains just a short distance from shore.
Next, head to Arena Blanca, a unique sandbar in the middle of the ocean. Stand knee-deep in crystal-clear waters, spot beautiful sea stars below, and soak up the incredible natural surroundings.
Your final stop is Isla Diablo, a charming island with powdery white sand and a local Kuna community. Take a refreshing dip in the ocean, explore the island, or rinse off in the fresh water showers before your return journey.
As the day winds down, board your boat back to the Port of Carti, where your driver will be waiting to take you on a comfortable ride back to Panama City, arriving in the evening.
