Santa Catalina is Panama's most celebrated surf destination — a remote, rugged village on the Pacific coast of Veraguas Province that draws wave riders, divers, and nature lovers from around the world. Despite its growing international fame, it has managed to retain its authentic fishing-village soul, with unpaved streets, fresh seafood at every turn, and some of the most dramatic ocean sunsets in all of Central America.
The surf here is world-class: hollow, powerful reef breaks that work best from April through October, attracting experienced surfers seeking big, uncrowded waves. But Santa Catalina is also the gateway to Coiba National Park — a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the largest marine parks in the Americas, home to whale sharks, hammerhead sharks, manta rays, and an extraordinary diversity of marine life.
Our afternoon departure from Panama City gets you to Santa Catalina in time for dinner, so you wake up the next morning ready to paddle out or hop on a boat to Coiba. There is no easier way to trade the city skyline for open ocean horizons.
