Chiriqui Gulf Islands Weekend Trip departing from Boquete, Panama

Posted by panamajoules | August 10th, 2009

In the spirit of providing the most amazing Spanish learning experience we have organized a two night trip to the Chiriqui Gulf National Marine Park. The Gulf of Chiriqui is one of Panama’s undiscovered gems. We will be staying at Isla Paridita (only accommodation in the National Park) and amongst other things we will go whale watching, have access to great snorkeling, look for dolphins and also visit Isla Gámez and Bolaños.

This activity will take place from Saturday August 15th – Monday August 17th. We only have availability for 8 guests!
