Escape to a tropical paradise on this unforgettable day trip to the San Blas Islands from Panama City. Discover stunning white-sand beaches, swim in crystal-clear waters, and snorkel among vibrant marine life. Visit the breathtaking Isla Perro, the unique Arena Blanca sandbar, and the serene Isla Diablo. Along the way, enjoy a freshly prepared lunch and plenty of time to relax in this untouched paradise.

Tour Highlights:

✅ Isla Perro (Dog Island): Swim and snorkel around a mesmerising sunken shipwreck teeming with tropical fish.
✅ Arena Blanca: Stand waist-deep in the middle of the ocean on soft, white sand, surrounded by colourful sea stars.
✅ Isla Diablo: Unwind on pristine beaches, meet the local Kuna community, and enjoy fresh water showers before heading back.
✅ Scenic Drive from Panama City: Journey through lush jungle highlands and stop at a local supermarket for any last-minute snacks or drinks.

Your Adventure Itinerary:

Your island-hopping experience begins with an early morning hotel pickup in Panama City. Relax and take in the scenic views as you travel through the lush Guna Yala region to the Port of Carti. Along the way, you'll have a chance to stop at a supermarket to grab any personal items, such as snacks, drinks, or fruit.

Upon arrival at the port, meet your local San Blas guide and board your traditional “lancha” boat. Enjoy the exhilarating ride across the open sea—feel the ocean breeze and occasional sea spray while taking in the stunning coastal views.

Your first stop is Isla Perro, a picture-perfect tropical island with swaying palm trees and turquoise waters. Here, you can swim, relax in the shade, or explore the island. Snorkel around a fascinating sunken shipwreck, where schools of fish dart through the coral-covered remains just a short distance from shore.

Next, head to Arena Blanca, a unique sandbar in the middle of the ocean. Stand knee-deep in crystal-clear waters, spot beautiful sea stars below, and soak up the incredible natural surroundings.

Your final stop is Isla Diablo, a charming island with powdery white sand and a local Kuna community. Take a refreshing dip in the ocean, explore the island, or rinse off in the fresh water showers before your return journey.

As the day winds down, board your boat back to the Port of Carti, where your driver will be waiting to take you on a comfortable ride back to Panama City, arriving in the evening.

Important Notes:
Snorkelling Equipment: While snorkelling gear is available, we have a limited quantity. If you would like to use snorkel equipment, please request it from the boat crew upon arrival.

What to Bring: A swimming costume, towel, sunblock, hat, cash for local purchases, and a waterproof bag for valuables.

Get ready for an unforgettable day in the San Blas Islands—where adventure meets paradise!
