Located on the coast of the San Lorenzo district in Chiriqui province and at only one hour by car from David City, Boca Chica has established itself as one of Panama's most appealing coastal destinations. This quiet fishing village serves as the main gateway to the Gulf of Chiriqui Marine National Park—a natural sanctuary where white-sand islands, crystal-clear waters, mangroves, and extraordinary biodiversity create the perfect setting for those seeking relaxation, adventure, and a connection with nature. An Archipelago Waiting to Be Discovered  Boats depart daily from the Boca Chica dock for some of the most spectacular islands in the Panamanian Pacific. Islands such as Gamez, Bolaños, Boca Brava, Paridas, Saino, and Linarte make up this mosaic of natural landscapes, where virtually pristine beaches and calm waters invite visitors to soak up the sun, swim, or simply admire the beauty of the surroundings.  Experiences at Sea  The waters of the Gulf of Chiriqui provide the ideal setting for snorkeling, scuba diving, kayaking, paddleboarding, and boat tours among the islands. Coral reefs teem with a wide variety of tropical fish, sea turtles, and other species, turning every excursion into an opportunity to discover the richness of the marine ecosystem. A Destination for Fishing Enthusiasts  Boca Chica is also internationally renowned for the quality of its sport fishing. Anglers from home and abroad visit year-round in search of species characteristic of the Panamanian Pacific—such as tuna, roosterfish, jack, and snapper—cementing the destination's status as a regional leader in the sport.  A Wildlife Spectacle  Between July and October, the waters of the Gulf of Chiriqui welcome humpback whales that arrive to breed and raise their calves. This natural spectacle is complemented by the frequent presence of dolphins and abundant birdlife inhabiting the mangroves and coastal forests, making Boca Chica a prime destination for wildlife viewing. Amazing Dining and Accommodation  The experience is rounded out by a diverse range of boutique hotels, eco-lodges, and small lodgings that blend harmoniously with the natural surroundings. Local restaurants serve fresh fish and seafood, highlighting the flavors of the Panamanian Pacific and making the cuisine another of the destination's major attractions. Boca Chica is a destination where the ocean, nature, and tranquility combine to offer unforgettable experiences.
