DAY TOUR Portobelo & Caribbean Beaches by Speedboat + Snorkeling

About this activity

We'll take you to stunning Caribbean beaches that can only be reached by boat—no roads lead here! You'll visit two unique locations: Playa Blanca, known for its amazing snorkeling, and Venas Azules, a serene turquoise lagoon surrounded by mangroves. Both are nestled within Portobelo National Park, a pristine natural haven teeming with wildlife.

If you choose the pickup option, we’ll collect you from your hotel in Panama City and bring you to Portobelo, a historic port founded by the Spanish in 1597 to defend against pirate raids. During the tour, you can swim, snorkel, or simply relax on the beach.

Before heading back, enjoy free time to explore Portobelo’s charm—visit its seaside restaurants, the Spanish Customs House, local art galleries, and the famous Black Jesus Church.

Perfect for adventurous travelers who enjoy hidden gems and time on the water, this experience offers a unique blend of nature, history, and relaxation.
