Overview

  • Coiba, the largest island in Central America, spans 500 square kilometres and is part of Coiba National Park, which encompasses over 1,042 square miles. The Coiba Island Tour showcases this unique destination, including 38 smaller islands like Ranchería Island (“Coibita”), known for its beautiful beach and crocodile habitats. Visitors can also hike Cerro Gambute for panoramic views.

    Coiba Island is situated in the Veraguas province of Panama. Tours depart from the town of Santa Catalina. Start your day with a cup of coffee while checking in for the adventure at 7:50 a.m. The boat ride lasts about an hour and a half; upon arrival, you will explore a UNESCO World Heritage site celebrated for its abundant terrestrial and marine biodiversity. Throughout the tour, you might encounter dolphins, orcas, pilot whales, humpback whales (from June/July to October), whale sharks (from December to March), sea turtles, manta rays, and a variety of bird species.

Coiba Island National Park

  • 5h
  • Admission ticket not included
On your day trip to Coiba, you'll have the opportunity to snorkel at three different locations; these spots may change based on tide levels, capacity, and visibility. While exploring underwater, you might come across species you've never encountered before, as the park boasts 760 types of marine fish, 20 species of cetaceans, and 33 varieties of sharks. If luck is on your side, you could even find yourself swimming alongside a whale shark! The tour also features time spent on the beaches of various islands, along with a visit to the Coiba visitor centre. Here, you'll discover several trails, and it's quite possible to spot monkeys and iguanas. Savour your lunch and relax on the beach in a tropical paradise adorned with palm trees, soft white sand, and crystal-clear waters. Ultimately, you'll make your way back to Santa Catalina, arriving in the village around 4:00 or 5:00 PM.
