Overview

Bocas del Toro is blessed with picture-postcard beaches, world-class surfing, banana plantations, crystal-clear waters, coral reefs, and abundant marine life, which inspired the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute to base one of the Caribbean’s leading research stations on Isla Colón. Bocas del Toro is home to two national parks: Isla Bastimentos National Marine Park, home of the largest area of Caribbean mangrove swamp in Panama, and La Amistad International Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, both of which help make Bocas del Toro one of the country’s top ecotourism destinations.
