Vé di động
Set sail with us to explore hidden Caribbean gems only accessible by sea! With 20 years of experience navigating these waters, we’ll guide you to vibrant marine spots far from the crowds.
This tour explores two stunning and contrasting locations: Playa Drake, known for its incredible snorkeling, and Venas Azules, a turquoise lagoon surrounded by mangroves. Both are part of the unspoiled Portobelo National Park, rich in biodiversity and natural beauty.
If you choose the pickup option, we’ll collect you directly from your hotel and take you to the historic town of Portobelo—founded in 1597 by the Spanish to defend against pirate invasions. From there, we’ll cruise toward these breathtaking destinations on a catamaran, raising the sails whenever the wind allows.
During the trip, you’ll have the chance to swim, kayak, paddleboard, or simply unwind on the catamaran or beach. Perfect for adventurous travelers looking for off-the-beaten-path experiences and a deep connection with nature!

Portobelo
Here, you can see Spanish defensive fortifications built 500 years ago. It's part of UNESCO's World Heritage Sites. From here you will get the speedboat to the catamaran (2 minutes ride).
Once on the catamaran, we will do a briefing and sail for almost one hour to the first stop: Venas Azules. Our first stop is Isla del Padre, also called Blue Veins. Blue Veins is a lagoon of mangroves with crystal-clear water and a white sand beach. Here we’ll explore the lagoon by dinghi. Then we will sail to our next stop Playa Drake for 20 mins.

The day was a success. ...

5.00The day was a success. The captain and his 1st mate were very obliging. They worked very hard to ensure we had a great time and that our needs were met. The weather was great and the sloths in the trees at Playa Blanca were an added bonus. Snorkeling at Playa Blanca was the best.
Snorkel/catamaran excursion.

4.00Longer drive than I thought (maybe didn’t pay attention)…1.5-2 hours each way from Panama City. Calling the water taxi (5-10 minutes from land to the catamaran) a speed boat is a stretch. Great captain (also chef) and deck hand. Two gorgeous stops…. Snorkeling is mediocre (but I’ve been in some spectacular places so depends on your comparison). Water temp was comfortable (which is saying a lot coming from me). We saw two sloths in the trees at our 2nd stop… exciting! Both stops were beautiful. I’m saying I’d recommend… given the caveats above. It was interesting to see some of the countryside.
Come on in, the water is great!

5.00There is something to be said for relaxing on the deck of a catamaran. And for being served a delicious lunch while relaxing on the deck of the catamaran. Then add snorkeling, swimming, SUP, a kayak, and some aquatic wildlife and you have a perfect day. The monkey in the tree was a huge bonus. It was a wonderful tour.
Great experience,...

5.00Wonderful experience, despite the slightly cloudy weather: ride, lunch, captain, vegetarian option
Lovely boat trip sandwiched between a grueling van experience

4.00The boat is exactly as advertised, but the van taking you there is lackluster at best. And it’s like a 2 hour drive both ways, and they don’t give a lot of instructions right when you get off the van. So we thought they might about to harvest our organs. All jokes aside it was a lovely day and the folks on the boat were great.
Not worth the money

1.00No one helped me into the first boat I slipped and really got hurt. The catamaran was tiny, not clean, smelled bad and over crowded. You could sit on the roof, which didn’t seem safe. The day was 12 hours (unusual traffic) with only two hours of actual water time. The first stop we had to get on a tiny raft boat that wasn’t uncomfortable. The snorkling was mediocre. It’s outrageous the price they charged. The staff was nice, they did their best but the experience was pretty bad. I’ve never left a bad review, but I’ve taken many catamaran tours on big beautiful clean boats where you can relax in the sun. This really was so tiny. This barely qualified. So disappointing.
National Park Catamaran Adventure!

5.00The Venas Azules are beautiful and we had a good amount of time to swim around the mangroves and see a few fish and sea creatures. Beautiful area! The snorkling near the beach had more corals and colorful fish. The water and scenery were beautiful. The beach we went to had four sloths and one of the two guides went out of his way to point them out to us! The hamburger was good! The crew were nice! We enjoyed ourselves.
Highly recommend

Amazing Tour Experience

5.00What an amazing experience! We went on this tour with my coworkers, and everything was absolutely perfect from start to finish. The crew were so friendly, welcoming, and professional — they made sure we felt safe by giving clear safety instructions and took great care of us throughout the trip. The journey itself was smooth and relaxing, with great music on board that added to the atmosphere. The islands we visited were breathtaking, the swimming spots crystal clear, and the reefs were full of vibrant colors and so many different kinds of fish — truly like swimming in a natural aquarium. The food was fresh, delicious, and exactly what you’d want on a day out at sea. From the boat to the service to every little detail, it was all just sooooo good! I’d highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Panama — it’s an unforgettable experience.
