A short stay in Panama City with a tour of the Panama Canal and a nice wine/dine evening in the pulsating historical Old City of Casco Viejo is a perfect way to start your trip and get in the Panamanian mood. You might continue your journey by choosing to spend time in the highlands, the Islands of the Caribbean Sea, enjoy the vast rain forests that are home to amazing flora and fauna or experience diversified rich and vibrant indigenous cultures. Travel down the Azuera Peninsula, or travel up to the Chiriquí Highlands with its rugged mountains dotted with coffee plantations.

The highlight of your trip would be your stay with us on the Pacific side of Panama across the bay from the little authentic fishing village of Boca Chica. It is here that the clocks stand still. No chic shopping, no jumping night-life. No yellow arches ... experience Panama-pure.

Boca Chica in Chiriquí is the gateway to the archipelago islands in the Gulf of Chiriquí, which is also home to the renowned Parque Nacional Marino Golfo de Chiriquí and Coiba National Park. Tropical islands, water sports and world-renowned deep-sea fishing await you here.


THE PATH IS THE GOAL

It is in this little fishing village of Boca Chica where your off-shore adventure starts. You will transfer to the island of Boca Brava where we invite you to join us at our home Isla Bambu Oceanfront Island Estate - your personal holiday address for a luxurious corner of peace and paradise.

You can either take one of the local fishing boats directly from Boca Chica to our estate’s private dock, which includes a remote-controlled platform, or you can cross for a 4- minute boat-ride to the Boca Brava dock, where we will pick you up. It is an 8-minute ride through this lush island with its thick jungle, forest landscape. You will pass some of the indigenous families - members of the Indian tribe Ngöbe-Buglé, who work on the island ‘Fincas’. During your stay, you will witness an abundance of wild-life and be greeted by a chorus of howler-monkeys and a medley of some of the about 300 bird species who make Boca Brava their home. If you prefer to walk from the dock, it is only a beautiful 15-minute hike on a shaded road trail.
