This is a great beach for surfers.
you definitely have to do a tour to Isla Coiba! You can go snorkeling (or diving) there and see all kinds of animals (sharks, turtles, manta rays, a lot of fish and corals,...). We also saw dolphins and between July and October there are humpback whales in this area.
We did the tour with "Watching Dolphins" and were extremely happy with our choice.

"If you're looking for peace an tranquility, you'll find it here. Relaxing place, decent food at affordable price, good estaff. The ride to get to the place is in itself worth the price. The beach wasn't good to swim because the waves are mor like for surfing, and there was a lot of debris, but it has to do with the season. They have a nice swimming pool and an excellent view. We spent only one they, but will be back for a little longer. Good place to stay."

"The online 1-star rating is not really justified. Although basic, this place is worth the $55 fee. The Hotels.com experience is to be avoided, they overcharged on the rate. The room was basic, the bed below average, but seeing the many species and number of sea birds in the early morning is a treat. The dirt driveway to the site is a biet of a pain."

Hotel Santa Catalina Panama

10/10 Excellent

"Great place to stay, we will definitely be back!"

Bambuda Santa Catalina

10/10 Excellent

"We had an amazing stay. It was low season, so the hotel was not that crowded. The service of the staff was beyond my expectations. We included the breakfasts on our reservation and all options I had for the three days were awesome. Best grilled cheese sandwich I've ever had. The room was comfy, I knew we were just coming back to sleep as we had many day trips booked. I fully recomend staying here, the cabanas were so beautiful."

Hotel y Restaurante Mama Ines

10/10 Excellent

"I was traveling with my teen daughter and we stayed here for two nights. The property is located a few stair steps down to the beach. Very quiet. Very homy relaxing atmosphere. Staff is very friendly. They have a restoran on the site and serve delicious freshly made food for a reasonable price. We rent two queen bed room with a big furnished terrace overlooking ocean and the pool. Room was clean, spacious with good wifi reception and big tv. Chanals and Netflix available. It is a family buisness definitely dedicated to make your stay comfortable and enjoyable. The property is just 15 min. of safe walk at any time to more restorants and buisness. It is hard to find such a property for that price in this area. We would definitely come back here."

Hotel Hibiscus Garden / Jardin De Papos

6/10 Okay

Hotel Sol y Mar

10/10 Excellent

"We loved our stay. Geno our host was so welcoming & helpful. The breakfast was very nice with fresh juice & fruit. The stairs were ok, but may not be great for all travelers. Geno will try to be available to help with luggage if you give him an estimated arrival time. He has great suggestions for restaurants, tours & kayak rentals. We would definitely recommend!! "
