When planning your trip to the San Blas Islands, one of the first things to consider is how long you want to spend on the island. You will also need to decide if you want to stay on one island or hop on several different boats to see a variety of different islands. Then you will need to figure out which accommodations you want to stay on while you are on the islands. This is where multi-day San Blas tours come into play.

If you have never been to Panama's San Blas Islands, you're missing out on one of the most fascinating places in Central America. The San Blas Islands are a string of 365 tiny islands, each topped by a beautiful coconut tree. The water here is crystal clear and you can walk the length of any island in a single day, making the trip to the islands an unforgettable experience. The best way to get around the islands is to take a tour from one of the many San Blas islands hotels.

The first step on a San Blas tour is a 30-minute boat ride. The ocean's conditions may make the ride bumpy or rough, but there are always sun screens to keep you protected. Captain Fred Ebers has spent decades at sea, and his boat is one of the oldest in the Caribbean. He even sailed across Panama with other veteran captains. Because government charts are outdated and unreliable, he learned from them, and his charts are filled with his wisdom. Marina was also a crew member on the tour.

Once you've picked a tour company and chosen the one that best suits your budget, you can begin exploring the San Blas islands. Many of the San blas tours include a visit to a local village. During your tour, you can learn about local customs and learn about their traditional way of life. Many of these trips also include a hammock-sleeping experience, so you can enjoy the scenery and the people while you're there.

San Blas Islands tourism is a costly option. Your tour group will pick you up from Panama City and take you to a water taxi port on the island. Then, they'll take you overnight and return at the end of the day. While you may enjoy the beauty of the islands and the wildlife that lives there, day trips do not allow enough time to explore everything. Instead, opt for a one-night tour.
