Bocas del Toro Beach Travel Tips

By Linda Samuel

  • Pack a week's worth of fun into a day-long sailing excursion through the archipelago. Snorkel, scuba dive, picnic, and hike before returning to land thoroughly exhausted.
  • Wake early to watch locals steer pongas across the island's waterways on their way to work and school.
  • Journey into the jungle where howler monkeys, toucans, parrots, and polka-dot patterned dart frogs hop from tree to tree.
  • Cast a line at Bocas del Toro. Sailfish, blue marlin, red snapper, and snook are lucky catches.

  • We spent five days here, staying at Playa Bluff Lodge, which is located directly on the beach and at the rainforrest. The rooms are very luxe and have their own bathrooms. The food is great and there is plenty of it. The owners are from the Netherlands and know a lot of the nature. We saw sea turtles on the beach and monkeys in their garden. We recomend this to nature and beach lovers.
