Overview

Mobile ticket
Experience a day of adventure along Panama’s untouched Caribbean coast, accessible only by sea. With over 15 years of expertise, we’re excited to share our passion for the ocean with you. Your journey begins in historic Portobelo or from your accommodation in Panama City. A quick speedboat ride brings you to our spacious catamaran, where a brief safety orientation sets the tone for the day.
Our first stop is Blue Veins. Hop into a dinghy and glide through a peaceful mangrove lagoon before stopping for a refreshing swim or a moment to relax in shallow waters.
We then sail to Playa Blanca, famous for its white sand, turquoise waters, and vibrant coral reefs—perfect for swimming, snorkeling, kayaking, or paddleboarding. At 1 pm, enjoy a delicious local lunch onboard—special dietary options available.
As the tours winds down, we return to Portobelo. Depending on your selected option, continue your journey on your own or enjoy a convenient drop-off at your accommodation in Panama City.

A Perfect Birthday on the Water

5.00I booked this boat for my birthday with a couple of friends, and we had a wonderful time. They provided a cooler, so we brought some drinks, and the lunch was excellent — with options for our dietary restrictions. We chose to include pick-up, and the driver arrived comfortably at our Airbnb in Panama City right on time. Both the crew and the driver were very friendly. Super recommended!
An Unforgettable Day on a Private Catamaran
Brothers I,Dec 2, 2025
- Review from Tripadvisor
5.00We booked this private catamaran for just me and my partner, and we had a truly wonderful day. The crew was super friendly, and the captain was incredibly knowledgeable. We enjoyed a delicious shrimp meal and visited beautiful spots — the snorkeling was great, and they also had a kayak and a paddleboard available for us to use. The places we explored in the Caribbean of Panama were absolutely stunning. We really recommend this tour!
