Which San Blas Island Is The Best? Cambombia Island

It depends on your interests: for isolated and natural locations visit Dutch Cays and Coco Bandero. Those looking for bars, restaurants and a little action, head over to Cayo Limon or Lemon Cays. The archipelago of Guna Yala, also called the San Blas islands, lies in the East coast of Panama and it stretches all through the coast and well into Colombia. More than 365 islands with not even 50 of them inhabited make traveling in San Blas and sailing around the islands a monumental task that can only be successfully approached by experienced sailors with profound knowledge of the area and its peculiarities. The territory of San Blas is not only the islands within it but also part of the tropical jungle ashore. For years the fact that the region of San Blas has been owned and administered by the Kuna Indigenous has kept deforestation and construction away for the most part of the territory thus conserving an amazingly intact tropical ecosystem. * Our tours in San Blas offer not only the possibility to visit the islands and the cays but also the chance to venture upstream into the lush jungle. Jungle tours are run from Corazon de Jesus and Nargana islands where the airport lies; costs are $10 person or less depending on the size of your group. San Blas is safe, completely safe, and opportunities to explore the deep San Blas region should not be overlooked. Let us know upon reservation if you are interested in this 1/2 jungle tour as an addon to your sailing holidays. Our main sailing area in San Blas is the gulf and the islands within it. All inclusive yacht charters are run in the 20 Nautical miles gulf of San Blas area that is protected from the weather and any possible climatology adversities. San Blas sailing is definitely a unique experience and one that will leave you memories for life. But be aware, a catamaran experience such as a crewed catamaran holiday and specially in this remote areas can be served in many ways... For the most part we advise not to visit and stay away from the most famous islands in San Blas, like Isla Perro, Perro Chico, Robeson, Banedub, El Porvenir and Cayo Limon or Lemon Cays. Main reason to keep away from these islands it that they receive vast amounts of mostly Panamanian tourist and tend to get crowded and uncomfortable. Yes, this islands mentioned are also amazingly charming and we do visit them at times, but only during the summer days when tourism declines. The perfect Caribbean catamaran sailing charter must deliver a unique experience that is adapted to your needs, one catamaran experience with that special touch and uniqueness that stands out from the rest of other Caribbean sailing vacations. The ambitious goal of the perfect sailing vacation in San Blas is achieved by sailing away from the more frequented islands and venturing into the true and deep San Blas. Main rule is to set the starting point away from the vicinity of the road access to San Blas and the ports of San Blas. Day tourists can only reach the islands not so distant from the mainland access so as to maximise their time in the San Blas islands. There is an exception though, some very interesting islands to visit such as Aguadup and Soledad Miria must not be overlooked and they are relatively close to the road entrance. If you want a total immersion into the Kuna society and their way of living, these are your islands. Be warned: these islands and the traditional way of living are definitely not your typical tourist attraction. No snorkelling or clears waters in these islands, the proximity of the rivers and their murky waters make this sites not interesting for swimming. Our sailing grounds are basically the islands that compose the outer San Blas, including the vast number of islands and isolated anchorages in Cayo Coco Bandero, Cayos Holandeses (Dutch Cays) with BBQ island, Nargana surrounding islands like Bapurgana and Cambombia along with the great number of inhabited islands easily reached with our dingy or our paddle boards. When found, Kuna indigenous locals are appreciative of our visit and our cordiality and will open their lives and knowledge to us. Unlike other tourist beaten destinations, San Blas still preserves the untouched and calm atmosphere dreamed by many. Embark on a sailing expedition onboard our crewed all inclusive sailing charters in the Caribbean side of Panama. Chose your catamaran, set your dates and let us take care of the rest. We would love to show you the true San Blas.

A highly emotional moment this morning aboard the Race for Water when the Te mano o te moana team arrived with Ganany, a green turtle of 30 centiments and 6 kilos. The first day of the rest of the life of Ganany start today because, for the first she is going to evolve in total freedom in the Pacific ocean. Offshore the Cook bay, from the Race for Water float, Marco Simeoni and the doctor Cécile Gaspard carefully put him on the water, before seeing him dive and go away... The Race for Water Foundation is dedicated to the preservation of the water and the oceans in particular. Today, seriously under threat from plastic pollution, it is imperative that this essential resource for life is protected.To prevent plastic waste from reaching the waterways and oceans by developing social models and business models that give value to plastic waste and hence encourage its collection.

Giorno 51 - all’ancora a Torrevieja Questa mattina sveglia presto, con le prime luci apriamo gli occhi. Sarà che a questa longitudine il sole sorge alle 8😂 Comunque possiamo dire “sveglia all’alba”. Appena alzati dal letto Cami si allena. “Cavolo, devo ricominciare ad allenarmi anche io”. Una frase che mi frulla per la testa da un po’ di giorni. La lascio lì, deve maturare per bene per trasformarsi in azione. Il fermento c’è, sono fiducioso che a breve avrò la spinta giusta per rimettermi in forma. Pensieri a parte. Colazione! Yogurt con muesli e granelli di cioccolato. Alle 9 si “va in ufficio”. Devo dire che stiamo trovando un buon equilibrio tra vita lavorativa e vita a bordo sia nei tempi sia nello spazio. Ognuno ha la sua postazione. Ed è fondamentale riuscire ad entrare in quello stato mentale di “testa sui clienti” per rendere la produttività efficace e dare il 100%. Un pranzetto di verdure cotte in salsa di soia, wok, e frittata. Mezz’ora di pausa e di nuovo sul computer. Sono giorni caldissimi perché entrambi stiamo lavorando su un cliente comune che sta per lanciare un nuovo prodotto e ci assorbe gran parte del nostro tempo. Le ore passano veloci: chiamate, preventivi, fatture, allineamenti, decisioni. Esco, subito dopo aver chiuso il computer, e vengo sorpreso da un panorama che ogni volta mi emoziona come se fosse la prima volta. Ogni tramonto ha il suo sapore, il suo colore. Dopo tante ore concentrati la natura non può fare un regalo più grande per rilassare la mente. Ce lo godiamo, tutto. Dalle prime luci ancora intense fino a quando il sole è appena scomparso e le nuvole prendono quel colore rosa che non è possibile descrivere a parole. Ineffabile come direbbe il vecchio Dante (rendiamo felice la professoressa di lettere del liceo😊). E così cala la sera, ci rilassiamo e pensiamo alla cena. Stasera facciamo un salsiccia in umido e polenta in grande stile invernale. Un inverno che quest’anno se tutto va come speriamo sarà contornato da palme e noci di cocco, ma che per ora per noi significa ancora camino, libro e una cena calda. Il viaggio continua verso spiagge e cocchi, ma per ora ci godiamo ancora i sapori montani. Andrea
