Panama Adventures

Panama

Three words: Panama adventure travel. One of the best places to visit in Panama is the great outdoors! Panama adventure travel tours offer you the adrenaline rush you never knew you needed. Leave all of the stress you brought with you behind as you laugh and shout when you're zip lining through the jungles of Boquete, or getting splashed as you raft the city's nearby whitewater rapids. Go windsurfing in Punta Chame; later, do your best impression of an explorer when you make your way through the region's dense mangroves.

Panama's adventure opportunities are far-reaching and impressive. One day, you're hiking along a rugged trail in the rainforest, and the next, you're heading toward the coast and Panama's beaches — you couldn't resist the chance to ride horses, kayak, scuba dive, and enjoy the Panama surf. As you can see, Panama's adventure activities are available throughout the country; they're also safe, fun, and memorable. Not only will they get your heart pumping, they'll expose you to some of Panama’s best outdoor environments.

Panama Highlights

A curated look at the best Panama has to offer. These are the destinations that consistently stand out — places with real character, great experiences, and something worth going out of your way for.

Boquete

Boquete

The small town of Boquete sits in the highlands of Panama’s Chiriquí province, snugly fitted into a lush valley and surrounded by towering mountains, gushing streams, and abundant coffee farms. Though once a sleepy mountain town forgotten by time, Boquete is beginning to see more and more tourists these days, and for good reason – its natural beauty is astounding and its range of activities spectacular. Panama’s only volcano, Volcán Barú, lies only 9 km away, providing visitors with excellent hiking, nature viewing, and camping. Boquete’s other attractions include white-water rafting, canopy tours, hot springs, botanical gardens, and more.

Punta Chame

Punta Chame

Punta Chame is a popular windsurfing spot along the Bahía de Chame in central Panama. The punta (point) is at the end of a long, thin peninsula lined by shrimp farms and mangroves. It’s only an hour and a half drive from Panama City, making it a popular spot with adrenalin-junkies from the city. In many ways, this is a get-away-from-it-all type destination, as there is little at at the end of the peninsula other than a windsurfing school, a few accommodations, and a smattering of residences.
