The scenic country of Panama owes a lot of its charm to its unique location between North and South America and its unique geography made up of over 1400 islands. A visit to this nation is a dream come true for lovers of the wild as 30 percent of its land comes under the categories of national parks and wildlife reserves. Adventurers can go all out with the presence of activities such as biking, fishing, snorkeling, hiking, and kayaking. Those looking for a quieter time can unwind at pristine beaches and spa retreats. Witness marine life like never before at Coiba National Park or see the modern marvel of Panama Canal to realize how much the country has to offer.
