The San Blas Islands are a group of islands in the archipelago de San Blas, located in the Northwest of Panama facing the Caribbean Sea. There are 378 islands and cays, 49 are inhabited within the archipelago of about 160 square kilometres, a haven for ecotourism within a pristine environment.
With white sandy beaches and waving palms, the Islands are entirely in control of the native Kuna's protecting their lands against massive tourism, keeping them healthy and beautiful making the San Blas Islands of Panama unique if you are searching for untouched nature and culture. From 1679 to 1681, the explorer William Dampier started and ended his first journey with privateers and pirates in these islands; he called "The Samballoes," a rendezvous-place for pirates, convenient for hiding away.
“All four of us found the whole trip to be excellent - well thought out and gave us a good overview of Vietnamese and Cambodian culture. All the guides were excellent (and all very different from each other but understood their area). We will definitely recommend this tour to others.”
