A local hangout on the water in Bocas del Toro. The town is very rich in local color and the casual enjoyment of unbelievable water views. There are many bars/restaurants like this one on the water...but this one is the best 'cause we're there. :P

I didn't take enough photos of the town, I mean, I didn't take any. Well, none of the main street, and not any good ones... more travel advice

It is a short boat taxi ride to the island from Bocas del Toro. The small enclave is rustically picturesque. Stop at one... more travel advice

Anna, I was thinking of going to Bocas but I here it's not that built up as far as hotels go. Would you know if the Gulf on Chiriqui, around David, would be nicer? I like the water & beaches but I also like good lodging.
