Navigating Lake Gatun offers an exciting experience, providing a privileged view of one of the key components of the Panama Canal. Aboard specialised boats, participants explore the lush tropical jungle surrounding the lake, spotting a variety of wildlife such as monkeys, alligators, turtles, and birds. This artificial lake not only offers a stunning backdrop but also plays a crucial role in the canal's operation, serving as a freshwater reservoir that feeds the locks and facilitates the transit of ships between the Atlantic and Pacific oceans.
