Panama City Overview

By Travel Expert: Candyce H. Stapen

Geographically diverse, Panama offers rainforests, mountains, beaches, and beautiful coastline on the Caribbean and the Pacific, and more bird species than in the United States and Canada combined. Culturally rich, Panama is home to seven indigenous Amerindian tribes including the Embera and the Wounaan of the Darien jungle, and the Kuna who live along Panama's eastern Caribbean coast and in the San Blas Islands just off shore.
