Without a doubt, Western Panama is an amazing place to cruiseβyou can day-hop from one secluded anchorage to the next, getting your fill of tropical beaches, lush mountains and warm water. We spent three fantastic weeks poking our way to the big city, and if you were so inclined, you could easily spend twice that. While we settle in to city life for a bit, here are a few pictures to give you a little taste of the trip β¦.
