What's the weather like?
Panama is warm year-round, with an average high of 30ºC (86ºF). The dry season runs from mid-December to mid-April and is the best time to visit for sunshine, beach days and canal cruising.
Top three activities
1. Bioluminescent kayaking in Bocas del Toro
2. Sailing through the Panama Canal to Monkey Island
3. Chocolate-making and craft with the Ngäbe community
What should I know before traveling to Panama?
While the city offers a polished, urban experience, Bocas feels more rustic and authentic, shaped by island rhythms, local culture, and a relaxed atmosphere. Embracing both sides gives you a deeper, more complete sense of the country — where modernity and tradition sit comfortably side by side.
Top places to visit in Panama
Panama City
Sleek, modern and full of surprises, the capital is a heady mix of historic streets, rooftop bars and global flavour. Explore the UNESCO-listed Casco Viejo district, sip world-famous Geisha coffee, and cruise the legendary Panama Canal to Monkey Island.
Gamboa Rainforest
Just outside the capital, this biodiverse wonderland is home to sloths, monkeys and vibrant butterflies. Glide through hidden waterways and explore the rainforest that pulses with life at every turn.
Bocas del Toro
An more rustic island paradise where pastel Caribbean houses meet rainforest-fringed beaches. This laidback archipelago is perfect for kayaking, snorkeling, dolphin-spotting and sinking into slow, easy island life.
Ngäbe Buglé Region
Connect with Panama’s Indigenous roots during a day spent learning traditional crafts, farming techniques and cooking with local women. It’s a rare and meaningful cultural exchange set in the lush heart of the country.
