Embark on an unforgettable journey to Panama's breathtaking Caribbean gems—only reachable by sea! With over 20 years of sailing experience, we know exactly where to take you for that “hidden paradise” vibe.

Get picked up at 7:00 AM from your Panama City accommodation for a scenic 2-hour drive to historic Portobelo—a Spanish port founded in 1597, or meet us at the dock by 9:00 AM to catch a speedboat to our catamaran.

We’ll sail 50 minutes to Venas Azules, a turquoise mangrove lagoon, which we’ll explore by dinghy for 1.5 hours—swimming or relaxing in calm shallow waters.

Next, it’s a 30-minute sail to Playa Drake, where you’ll have 2.5 hours to snorkel vibrant coral reefs, paddleboard, kayak, swim, or simply kick back on the beach or boat.
At 1 PM, enjoy a delicious local meal onboard.

After soaking in all that beauty and fun, we’ll cruise back to Portobelo with hearts full of unforgettable memories.

Love cruising? Craving off-the-beaten-path spots? This is your perfect escape!
