About This Experience in Colon

Set sail with us to explore hidden Caribbean gems only accessible by sea! With 20 years of experience navigating these waters, we’ll guide you to vibrant marine spots far from the crowds. This tour explores two stunning and contrasting locations: Playa Drake, known for its incredible snorkeling, and Venas Azules, a turquoise lagoon surrounded by mangroves. Both are part of the unspoiled Portobelo National Park, rich in biodiversity and natural beauty. If you choose the pickup option, we’ll collect you directly from your hotel and take you to the historic town of Portobelo—founded in 1597 by the Spanish to defend against pirate invasions. From there, we’ll cruise toward these breathtaking destinations on a catamaran, raising the sails whenever the wind allows. During the trip, you’ll have the chance to swim, kayak, paddleboard, or simply unwind on the catamaran or beach. Perfect for adventurous travelers looking for off-the-beaten-path experiences and a deep connection with nature!
