Adventure & Nature in Panamá

Panamá is a beautifully biodiverse country that has welcomed diverse cultures and communities for centuries. It's a vibrant mosaic of indigenous heritage and influences from Spanish, Chinese, Afro-Caribbean, American, and French traditions. Panamá connects North and South America and the Pacific Ocean with the Caribbean Sea. This makes our natural wealth evident and makes it a playground for countless nearby adventures.

Explore the World's Most Studied Rainforest

Are you into birding? Here, we have more bird species than all of Europe and the United States combined. But that's not all — with 63% forest coverage, Panamá has the most forested areas in Central America. This means, on your next vacation, you will see more species of plants and animals than you can name. It's no wonder we have the most studied tropical rainforest in the world and the Smithsonian established here for over 100 years.

Land of Contrasts & Adventure

Visit Panamá to immerse yourself in diverse landscapes that are a playground for stimulating moments and adventure.

Conservation & Natural Beauty

Panamá’s conservation efforts are significant! One-third of our land and more than 50% of our seas are protected. We have three UNESCO Natural Heritage Sites including Coiba National Park and La Amistad International Park — yours to discover.

With two oceans to experience, our coastlines tell their own story with some of the world’s most beautiful beaches and islands. Get ready to hike and explore waterfalls, navigate from one sea to another, surf the best waves, dive in marine parks, and help protect the five species of sea turtles that nest on our beaches. All in one trip! Ready for adventure? Ready for Panamá.
