Charter a yacht in Panama!
The area of the Central and South American nation of Panama is 75,517 square kilometers (29,208 square miles). The Pacific and Caribbean oceans, which are separated by barely 50 miles at their narrowest point, flank it. The 2.7 million Panamanians speak Spanish as their mother tongue, but English is also widely spoken. Since 1904, the U.S. dollar has been accepted as legal tender in Panama, which is also a stable, democratic, and independent Republic. All major credit cards are accepted at the numerous ATMs located around the country. Panama is home to the fifth-largest international banking hub in the world. You need a current passport, and your airline may be able to give you a 90-day tourist card.
Major North and South American cities have direct flights to Panama’s Tocumen International Airport. The travel time to Miami is two hours. His hurricane-free country has a tropical climate with two distinct seasons, and European aircraft fly across it. From the middle of December through May, the frigid trade winds blow. Weak winds and infrequent precipitation characterize the remaining months of the year. The steady temperature fluctuates between 80 and 90 °F (25 to 30 °C).
A yacht hire is the finest way to explore the 365-island San Blas archipelago. It is located along the Caribbean coast and is the most scenic region in all of Panama. Kuna Yala is a land and marine park that offers both sea and land resources. It was established as an independent Indian territory in 1938. Overlooking this breathtaking uninhabited, pure, and relatively unexplored sanctuary on the continent is the “cordillera de las San Blas” mountain range. You can rent a motor yacht or a catamaran in Panama. The alternative is to rent a sailing boat.
The Kuna Indians of today still live on the islands much like their ancestors did, swapping coconuts and venturing out to sea to capture crabs, lobsters, and snapper in exquisite hand-carved wooden canoes called “Cayucos” with patchwork sails. The women continue to wear the distinctive orange and yellow costumes with the renowned “mola” rainbow colored designs that are embellished with fish, birds, jungle creatures, or geometric patterns in the majority of the communities, where only the old Indian language is spoken. They have lengths of beads called “Uinni” that are firmly strung around their arms and legs, and they wear a golden ring on the point of their nose. The best option for a vacation in Panama is a private yacht. For a list of available yachts, get in touch with Sneed Tropical yacht charters.

Using beautiful hand-carved wooden canoes called “Cayucos” with patchwork sails, the Kuna Indians of today still live on the islands much like their ancestors did, exchanging coconuts and going out to sea to catch crabs, lobsters, and snapper.
The majority of the towns only speak the archaic Indian language, and the ladies still don the distinctive orange and yellow dresses with the renowned “mola” rainbow colored patterns that are adorned with fish, birds, jungle creatures, or geometric patterns. They wear a golden ring in the tip of their nose and have lengths of beads known as “Uinni” tightly tied around their legs and arms.
Suggested Itinerary
Day 01
After arriving in Panama, fly to Porvenier quickly on a small aircraft. Your crew will welcome you and take you back to your charter yacht on the tender. Onboard, savor a relaxing lunch before exploring the charming Nalunega. A quick excursion to the Chichime Cays gives plenty of time to observe the sunset over Panama’s highlands.
Day 02
Spend the morning snorkeling in the pristine seas before grudgingly making your way back to the boat for lunch. Your captain will maneuver the boat to the following anchorage, Holandes Cays, while you enjoy an outdoor meal on the covered deck. The thought of diving back into the sea or taking a stroll down the white sand beach while unwinding under a coconut palm is almost too tempting to resist.
Day 03
Enjoy a cup of freshly brewed coffee while you watch the sun rise over a picture-perfect tropical island. Leave for the Coco Bandero Cays after breakfast. A beach BBQ will serve as lunch, and afterwards you can take a sleep in a hammock hung between two palm palms. Afterward, you may go swimming or kayaking before sunset cocktails.
Day 04
As you move toward Alitupu, which is close to the mainland, you can hear the calm hum of the engine. Discover the neighboring river while taking in the dense canopy of the rainforest and the countless bird species that call it home.
Day 05
Spend the day at Nurdupu by departing from Alitupu in the morning. Nurdupu is another picture-perfect tropical island, with white sand beaches, blue waters, with coconut palms and breadfruit trees dotting the landscape. The chef may have ordered lobster from a nearby fisherman for dinner.
Day 06
Leave Nurdupu’s tranquil perfection for the busier island of Rio Diablo. Lunch in town to sample regional food and take advantage of the welcoming Kuna Indians’ hospitality. With its expansive stands of bamboo and mango trees, the Rio Nasadi will be gently explored in the afternoon.
Day 07
An early start for Ustupu, where the largest community in San Blas, with 8,000 residents, is located! However, there is still time to make one final quick stop to enjoy a swim in the gin-clear waters before bathing and making the short trek to the airport to catch your flight back to civilisation. You are aware that you must go back because there are still hundreds of islands to discover. The journey will continue.
