You are invited
Friday, November 30, 2007
What if you received an invitation to inner peace?
Would it be the ultimate indulgence for you? Would it
be nice to have a consoling sense that you were no
longer part of the outside world (at least
temporarily)?
Here in Bocas del Toro Panama you can go to any number of beautiful white sand beaches and lose yourself in the beauty of the moment. The clear blue water set against the deep blue sky is an amazing sight. One could spend hours lost in such a spot.
Each day you can escape from the every day of the outside world. The biggest decision you need to make each day is what time you want to start your day. After breakfast you can head over to any of the different Panama Islands and begin your day of relaxation. You arrive at the beach armed with everything you need for a perfect day on a secluded beach. Picnic lunch, cold beverages, beach chairs, beach toys, sea kayaks, snorkeling equipment, etc. are all carried over to the island for you and placed in a perfect spot where you have access to both the sun and the shade. The time in the water will soothe your body, calm your spirit and feed your soul.

Cliff Snorkeling
Thursday, October 18, 2007
Along one of the Zapatilla Cayes here in Bocas del Toro
Panama you can go snorkeling along an ocean cliff. You
can take a leisurely walk from the leeward side of the
island over to the windward side and enter the water.
You swim along the Panama Island until you reach the
cliff. Once you reach the cliff you can dive down a bit
and encounter a large variety of fish. We help you
locate the spot to enter the water and then accompany
you to the cliff itself.
We had a couple out there yesterday who visited several spots in Bocas del Toro during their vacation. They both said that this beach and this snorkeling experience were the best they have had in Panama so far.
The Zapatilla Cayes are on the outer edge of the archipelago and the Bastimentos National Marine Park. Many of the boat captains and tour guides from Isla Colon do not venture out to these beautiful islands. The guides which do go as far as the Zapatillas generally do not accompany their clients on to the island. They drop them off and anchor or circle the island for some period of time and then return to pick them up. Their clients will have a wonderful beach experience. Their snorkeling experience is dependent upon chance. As it is up to the clients to find the spots to snorkel on their own.
As a Bocas del Toro Hotel, we try not to leave anything to chance – if we can improve upon your vacation by advance planning and guiding, then we do so.

Maritime forest
Monday, October 01, 2007
Many of the Panama islands which make up the
archipelago of Bocas del Toro are surrounded by lush
maritime forests. These mangrove forests are home to
many different sea creatures and plants. It is these
forests which allow so many of the fish and coral to
prosper in our waters.
Traversing amongst these maritime forests in a kayak is an unique experience. You paddle along side of the islands and you feel that you have plenty of room to roam. You can take off into the open ocean if you so choose or you can stick closer to the islands and navigate in a mangrove tunnel.
If you keep your eyes to the different pockets within the mangrove you may spy a cayman or other tropical animal which makes its home on the edge of the ocean and the forest.
You can kayak in a hidden bay towards a group of caves. These caves are home to stalagmites, stalagtites and a large number of bats. Of course the choice to enter into the cave or not is entirely yours, but the paddle to get there is an amazing one.
Some people choose to take a fishing rod with them as they kayak along the mangrove. Casting into the mangroves is a opportunity you do not encounter on a regular basis.
