Executive Beach at Contadora has some of the best snorkeling we have found in Panama.  Contadora is one of the larger Pearl Islands.  Contadora Island is a 25 minute plane ride or a 2 hour ferry ride from the mainland.  Several of the Survivor series were filmed in the Pearl Islands.  www.panamaroadrunner.com

9/10 Wonderful! (2 reviews)
Clean room, daily room cleaning, filtered water. Mattress too soft. Location very quiet but a bit of a walk from beaches and town center. Kitchen that they didn't want you to use. Nice fruit salad but a somewhat basic breakfast. Beach chairs available for use.

Contadora Island has the best sand, it doesn’t get too hot. It is like kinetic sand, your feet will sink 4 inches. Desolate island, which is nice.

Mr

Nice island you can see few nice amimals. Whater is clean but is not tropical type of you look at overall plants Many houses , hotels is empty looks scary at first impression

4/5 - Good

Richard

Very very nice. Spectacular beaches. Ocean water was too cold to really enjoy. Limited availability of food supplies and limited choice of restaurants and dining option. If you love food this is not a destination for you.

2/5 - Disappointing

Verified traveler

You have to wade in the water to get off the ferry and no one warns you

3/5 - Okay

Verified traveler

Explore the island, golf carts are all in bad shape, but they will give you an island view. The tenders from the ferry are so scary, but efficient staff....... If you like to fly, I would. The ferry ride can be very bumpy and long.... ferry 1-2 min
