Santa
Catalina
With the combination of road improvements and
the emergence of small hotels and tour operators, this place is slowly
turning into another one of the popular beach towns in Panama attracting
a diverse group of travelers, from serious surfers chasing big waves,
to divers taking boat trips to the nearby islands, to those only looking
to relax in a hammock and read a book while listening to the ocean in
the background.
What
to See & Do: Tourist
Attractions
Scuba
Diving Coiba
National Park is a group of 38 islands including Coiba Island (the largest
island in Central America) and the waters surrounding them, covering
430,825 acres. Identified by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site, it offers
rich and well preserved natural resources.
Surfing
Mostly
for experienced surfers, Santa Catalina offers consistent, easy to line
up, big waves. And because of its remote location surfing is relatively
uncrowded much of the time.
