SAN BLAS ISLANDS

 



The most beautiful part of Panama is located along the Caribbean coast: the 365 island archipelago of San Blas. Established in 1938 as an autonomous Indian territory, the land and marine park of Kuna Yala offer both land and sea treasures.
On the mainland, the “ cordillera de las San Blas “ mountain range rises above this gorgeous unexploited, unspoiled and relatively unknown paradise.

 

Today's Kuna Indians inhabit the islands in the same way their ancestors did - trading coconuts and fishing for crabs, lobsters and snappers aboard their graceful hand carved wooden canoes called "Cayucos,” complete with patchwork sails.

 

Most of the communities speak only the ancient Indian language and the women still wear the traditional colorful dresses in orange and yellow, highlighted with the world famous “mola” rainbow

colored patterns emblazoned with fish, birds, jungle animals or geometric designs. Their calves and arms are tightly bound with lengths of beads known as “Uinni” and they wear a golden ring through the tip of their nose.

 

 

Of the 365 islands, only about one-tenth are inhabited, and those are very crowded. The remaining islands are deserted. You will have the opportunity to experience both.

 

Available charters are crewed only.

We have the most comfortable boats in the San Blas with well ventilated double cabins equipped with fans, fresh water shower, electricity on board for reading and cold drinks... 
Furthermore, all our yachts serve French, Italian and International gourmet cuisine.
On some of our yachts, kayaks are available to our guests to provide them a very personal visit to the islands.

 After a scenic 30-minute flight from Panama City, across the continent from Pacific to Caribbean, you’ll land in Corazon de Jesus where the boat of your choice will be waiting for you. Before we head up to our first anchorage, a cayuko will come to pick us up for a 2 hour trip up Rio Diablo into the tropical rain forest.
