San Blas Islands from Panama City

The pick up from your hotel is at 5:25 am. Although is pretty early, San Blas is 2 hrs and 30 minutes away, but is it worth it? A humble opinion, a thousand times yes, it is paradise.
It is important that you know there will be 6 guests per transport. Vehicles are four-wheel drives such as Toyota Fortuners, Landcruisers or Prados. 
On the way to the islands, you will witness not only the beautiful sunrise over the Pacific Ocean but also the hustle and buzz happening on the east side of Panama.
Once you start going up the San Blas Hills, please roll the windows down and take a deep breath, relax with an amazing view of the mountains, just take it all in.
The transfer is from your hotel to the Port of Carti with experienced indigenous drivers, because the road is to be taken seriously.
Once you arrive at the port, the boat ride will take about 30 minutes depending on the weather. You will visit the Famous Perro Island and can swim around the shipwreck (snorkel mask is not included has a fee of $5.00). The tour will take you to 2 other islands and the natural swimming pool with starfish. Your lunch will be the catch of the day, with delicious coconut rice, plantains, and salad. (Lobster or crab could be ordered at your own cost). By 3:30pm, due to safety regulations enforced by the Indigenous Congress, you will be taken to the port. By 6:45pm, depending upon traffic, you should be arriving at your hotel.
You don't have to figure anything out. All is ready for you, transportation, boat, lunch, and tour. You just relax and enjoy, the rest is taken care of. Please bring your passport because is mandatory. Your day at San Blas will be an awesome experience, for sure!
