In this report, I show you a video of the most beautiful white sand beach in Panama.
The most beautiful white sand beach in Panama
Before we even arrived in Panama we heard about two beautiful Caribbean side islands with gorgeous white sand beaches we had to visit. We showed you a video of the first one in Bocas Del Toro, about 10 days ago.
Now, we are going to give you facts and videos about the second one in San Blas Panama. Our favorite beach in the San Blas islands was on a small island called Perro Grande. We visited several islands in San Blas but Peroo Grande was the most beautiful.
Our Favorite Island in San Blas Panama (Goes live Oct. 30th)
We left Panama City and stayed in San Blass for 4 days and two nights. We booked the trip through the travel agent called San Blas Dreams. They offer trips to several different islands in San Blas ranging from around $100 per person for day trips, all the way up to 4 days and 3 nights in a private beachfront hut for two people for about $300 per person for two people.
Just book using their web page at San Blas Dreams. (This is not an affiliate link). They will take a deposit from you at the time of booking with your credit card. Then you pay the driver $50 per person when they pick you up in Panama City. You pay $23 per when entering the San Blas, Kuna Tribe Territory of Panama, and you pay the balance when you arrive at your island.
We booked our 4 days and 3 nights at Diablo Island. There were about 4 islands to choose from when we went to San Blas.
In our package, the fee included 3 meals a day, snorkeling (with equipment), several islands, and the natural starfish pool. It also included our beachfront hut with its own bathroom. There is no AC, fan, or hot water. It felt like we were camping for 4 days.
Why some tourists are miserable in San Blas (Goes live Oct. 6th)
For breakfast each day, they will give you scrambled eggs and bread. For lunch and dinner, they will give you fish or chicken, rice, and salad. For vegetarians, they will give you rice, salad, and your choice of plantains, potatoes, or carrots.
Local fishermen stop by during the day and offer lobster and other kinds of fish. If you buy from the local fisherman, the resort you select will cook it for you and deliver it to you with your dinner. Qiang bought a lobster for $10 and thought they would just bring her the lobster. But they included her fish also since it was included in the package.
San Blas Dreams is not the only travel agent selling San Blas tours. Other agents sell other islands and some even have sailboat tours of the San Blas Islands. The island we picked, Diablo, is very rugged. If you are going for your honeymoon or expect to be pampered at all, you may want to look at other tour operators, including sailing tours, though they are likely to be more expensive.
We made three videos of our 4 days three nights in San Blas. Make sure to watch the three YouTube videos embedded on this webpage to learn more about San Blas, the local Kuna Indians, and our thoughts about what 4 days in San Blas felt like.
