BOCAS DEL TORO, Panama ULTIMATE Travel Guide! (con subtítulos)

Hola! Bienvenidos! Welcome to beautiful Bocas Del Toro! Buenos dias! Good morning Country Collectors and welcome to Panama! That's right we have crossed over from Costa Rica to Panama and we're going to be exploring a bit of it with you, starting here in the beautiful Bocas del Toro Archipelago. We can't wait to show you around before we do make sure to hit that subscribe button and ring the bell so you don't miss out on any of our future adventures! First things first how do we get here? In Puerto Viejo, Costa Rica we booked a shuttle for $25 USD that drove us to the Sixaola border crossing. Where we paid the Eight dollar departure tax before getting stamped out. From there we cross the river on the Sixaola-Guabito International Bridge which landed us in Panama where we got stamped in by immigration and hop back in the shuttle in route for Almirante. Once in Almirante we grabbed our bags and were led to a boat that would take us over to Boca's Town on Isla Colón. The beautiful ride took about 30 minutes and was included in our transport. Welcome to Boca Del Toro, AKA Bocas Town. It is the capital of the province here and is located on the southern tip of Isla Colón. Here on the archipelago there are nine main islands as well as hundreds of islets and keys and we're going to all of them! No we're not! Okay we're not gonna go to all of them but we do hope to show you a lot. And as you can imagine there are a lot of places to stay but we chose to stay here in Bocas town as it's our first time and it seems like this is where a lot of the action is centered around but later in this video we are going to head over to Isla Bastimentos which is the largest island. So stay tuned for that. Here on Isla Colón we are staying at Aqua Point condos and we are loving it! The apartment has a queen-size bed, bunk beds, air conditioning, TV, full kitchen and a full bath with hot water. I'll be honest there's some barking chickens, I mean barking dogs. There's some barking dogs and crowing chickens but...like that right there, but that's Island living for you. All right why don't we head out now and explore a bit of the town together. Come along. And I'm just grinning from ear to ear because we have blue skies today. Since we've been here, which has been like four days, we've been pushing off making this video because we wanted to show you it with, you know, in all its Glory here and we finally got this one we had a little the other day when we went on a boat trip we're gonna show you that in a little bit but as you know this area it does have that tropical climate so it does rain a lot even in the dry season. So you're gonna want to pack a raincoat whenever you come. And while you're walking around here something you're going to notice is that the tourism is secondary to the people living their lives here. A lot of places we went in Costa Rica it seems like it was built up for tourism and the locals kind of got pushed out. Here it's locals and then there's like a little bit of tourism here, a little bit of tourism there. On the main street you're going to see a few more of those, like fancier cafes and hotels but take a few steps away and you are in the real part of the country. Here you are feeling the culture. The people are just living and I love it. And I think that this is so interesting here I came down here on Sunday and they were actually setting up for a baseball game. Check it out this is the baseball field and that is the International Airport. There's no barrier. This is like the extra runway if the plane comes down it needs more it comes on to the baseball field. I've never seen something like that but it was very cool everyone was really excited. All these stands were filled with people just having a good time. It's definitely worth checking out. And one of the characteristics and one of the things I love most about this town. Are these beautiful, colorful, Caribbean style Clappered houses. I learned that they were built by the United Fruit Company in the late 19th, early 20th centuries when they established here. And some of them have been turned into businesses and accommodations like on the main road and a lot of the other ones, they're still occupied by, you know, by tenants here. And I just think they have such beautiful character. And right in town here is the central park. It's a great place to come down watch the world go by. Sit on the colorful painted benches. They have little vendors set up where you can buy some things. And just on the end is a little fruit market. Like Heidi mentioned Bocus Town is like the hub of the region. It's where you will find a lot of restaurants, cafes, shops, ATMs, tour operators, clubs and supermarkets. I swear there's a supermarket on every block, so you have your options. And you'll be happy to know that peanut butter is $4 USD here, unlike Costa Rica, where it was at ten dollars. So you know we've been at JIFF-ING all week. And if you didn't know Panama actually uses the US dollar as their currency but they also have a national currency known as the... this is not it. So show us what it is. This is their national currency known as the Balboa. It might look similar to your money from home right here, if you're from the US. The quarter and it's worth the same amount as well. Look at that. Exact same size too. They only use their own coins here but they are one-to-one with our money back home. Yeah so bring... Definitely bring your money when you come down here because they charge a hefty fee at the ATM. It seemed like wherever we went it was $6.50 USD and they only let you take out $250 USD at a time. So when you're doing tours or paying for your accommodations that can add up pretty quick. And speaking of restaurants there are so many great ones right in town and especially on the water here. We've definitely done our fair share of peaking inside and going in and checking them out. They look really sweet and the views are just perfection. Yeah! And last night we actually ate at CoCo Fastronomy. Not this one here but they have another location just down the road. I believe it's called La Pescaderia . They specialize in fish and seafood. Yeah and what did you get? I got a Bapé. They actually created their own type of bread. They cut it open and stuffed it with fish that was cooked in coconut milk. It was delicious. Yeah and I stuck with the kind of coconut theme and I went with Ceviche. It was a fish Ceviche in that coconut milk. It was yeah, simply remarkable. And it had a really cool atmosphere there like, there was a pool out front and our fresh juices came in these little like Tiki glasses. Yeah so we definitely recommend that place. And if you take a step inside here you'll feel like you've been transported back to earlier days. You can see on the walls here they have all these old vintage photos of what it was like, you know back in those days. So there's a lot of history you can learn here on these walls. So we definitely recommend coming in. As you know we always love learning a bit of history because it helps you appreciate where you are. Now let's head out and explore some more of the town. We actually walked by this space the other day. It's called Tropical Suites and it seems like a great place to spend some time. They have a little list out front that has every day of the week and the specials that they run. On Mondays they have free pool access and happy hour all day. So it's definitely a place you might want to come down, sit in the pool, look out at the water, watch the boats go by and enjoy this beautiful weather. When are you taking me here? Let's come later after we're done filming. Oh look at this. Check out the bar right there. And you can just go for dinner if you'd like. I know this is really nice. And maybe by now you're wondering, Heidi where are the beaches? There aren't any beaches here in town itself but if you travel northwest or northeast you can find them. I heard the most popular beaches on Isla Colón are Playa Bluff and Playa Estrella. And if you're actually looking to go to Playa Estrella we just found the bus here. It's located on the north side of the central park. Not sure what times it goes but I do know that it costs $2.50 USD. Just hop on. I think it takes about 50 minutes to get to Drago and then from there you'll walk 20 minutes to that beach. And if you didn't arrive by plane into Bocas then odds are you came by water and came into one of these docks here just like we did. They actually offer water taxis that will take you out to all these surrounding Islands here to experience the beaches and a good time. They also do some tours like we did the other day for tour number two. Where we went out and saw some incredible nature. We'll see you there. Good morning! As you can see we have some blue skies. We woke up this morning and we were like what is that? DE LIGHT! DE LIGHT! It's the first time we've seen the sun since we've been here. So we hopped out of bed and we're like, we are doing that day trip today. We're gonna make the best of this! Yeah so we're just waiting for our tour guide to show up. It cost $30 USD. He said we were going to Cayo Zapotilla, Starfish Beach and we're gonna look for some... Dolphins baby! It would Dolphin-atly be cool if we could see at least one, but I'm hoping for more! It Dolphin-atley would. So we're just waiting a bit and then we're gonna head off so come with us. Toto! We're not in Kansas anymore! You are right we're in Panama baby! We also stopped at the supermarket around the corner and picked up some snacks and water they have a cooler on the boat so you can bring stuff with you for snacks and drinks. Let's go! As you can see we have made it down here to the dock. We're just waiting for everybody to arrive. I believe this is our boat right here. I love the name of the motor it's Bob. And that reminds me of one of my favorite jokes what do you call a person with no arms no legs floating in the ocean? I don't know. Bob! Because he's just bobbing around! We have just made it to our first stop but let me tell you the ride out here was like a wave of climates! Oh it sure was. As soon as we got in the boat and pulled away it just started pouring rain and this like mist wrapped around the entire area. It was absolutely freezing too. But then a couple minutes later we got the blue skies again and it's absolutely gorgeous and we got to see a couple dolphins. We did it was really cool it was a mama and her baby and they were doing that little dolphin stroke through the water. But now we are here and our captain he said this is where you can order some food. We packed our own lunch so we're not gonna do that. You can get some drinks some food stock up because after here we're gonna go out to the Zapatilla islands I see them just out here and they look incredible. I know and the water has gotten so clear and blue since that sun came out. Yay and we're gonna snorkel we brought our snorkel stuff so make sure you do that too! And all along the way we passed such beautiful Mangrove forests like you can see right here. This is actually Isla Bastimentos it's the largest island in Bocas Del Toro here. And we're in the National Park. And we just learned that the Zapatilla Islands were a part of that National Park too so they you can tell that they definitely take care of this area. The water is so clean, there's so many beautiful fish. And it looks like Alex our captain is ready for us to get back on that boat and head out to those islands so let's do that! Welcome to Cayo Zapatilla 2. There is a numero uno. I think we passed it on the way in here. But this island is amazing! We just stepped off the boat on the pier and now we gotta go find a spot but first, how was the snorkeling? Man the water was so nice we didn't see a ton of fish but the coral garden made up of soft and hard corals was just stunning. Yeah and so our boat captain said we have two hours here on the island. Over on this side this is where the waves are coming in. It seems to be a bit more windy. I think if we go over to the other side we'll be guarded a bit more and the water might be a bit more bright blue. What do you say we do that? I love that idea. As you can see there are a lot of people here. I think this is one of the most popular day trips. It seemed like when we were walking around town getting info everyone kept saying you had to come here. But you know what it doesn't seem overcrowded at all and I think if we keep going there's going to be way less people too. Okay I was wrong. As I came around the corner of the island there were a ton of people everywhere, swimming - there's really not even a place to lay on the beach there's so many people. But this is a decent size island so we found a trail that goes into the center of the island and hopefully back to the beach. I think it's going to be nice to see a little bit of this pristine nature out here and maybe find a nice quiet spot that we can share with you. Come along! This is actually stunning just walking on this trail right here. We're surrounded by this beautiful vegetation. All these palm trees. Look at they have air plants all over them. It's gorgeous and the water over on this side is like this milky light blue. And it's a lot more calm too so we recommend heading to the west side right? West side. And look look it there's a blue morpho butterfly. Oh my goodness these are my favorite. The blue morpho is one of the most beautiful mariposas in the entire world in my humble opinion. Yeah but it like goes (wild). It's hard to catch on camera. Even with those giant blue wings it has. It's kind of cool though when it is not flying it closes them up and it's completely brown so it blends in with the jungle. Amazing camouflage. Amazing nature. I feel so fortunate to be here today the sun is out, that rain is gone, the water is blue, the jungle is green. It seems like everything is the way it should be especially you being here with us! Oooo. Yeah what do you think? This seems nice. There's a nice little sandy area. And there isn't a palm tree full of coconuts above us. You always have to look up to make sure because one of those falls on your head you're dead. And the water over here looks beautiful. It is coming in a little high so we might have to put our stuff just back further so it doesn't get wet but I think we found our spot. I like it. Let's enjoy it. And before we jump in that beautiful blue water we would love to give a shout out to our newest patrons: Tamara, James and Daniel. Thank you so much for your generous support. It's because of you in part that we are here today so thank you for that. Yeah and can you believe it like we're in Panama baby! And this is dedicated to you thank you so so much. And if you would like to become a part of our Patreon community we'll put the link in the description below. All right let's go jump in this water. Let's do this! That was great look at our faces we feel so refreshed don't we? Rejuvenated. Rejuvenated that's it. Well we are now gonna head back to the boat so they don't leave us here which actually wouldn't be too terrible. You know we could set up a little hut back here just live off coconuts. Why not? Yeah make a little fire. You got your flint. Of course! Survivor. Yeah and then yeah we'll see you wherever we go next! We are back at our first stop today and something I just realized earlier they weren't ordering food for then but for now. So people were putting in their order so when we came back they their lunch would be ready which makes sense. It does make a lot of sense. Because earlier I'm like we just started this tour like did people just eat why are we stopping for food. And we're only here for 10 minutes so what are we gonna eat in those 10 minutes? Yeah so like I said earlier we brought our own little snack we got some chocolate rice cakes with peanut butter. You know we got that peanut butter, and banana. Oh man we've actually been snacking on these since we got here and they are so good. Yeah especially if they're all that rice and beans that we had in Costa Rica it was just nice kind of to change it up and now that we can afford the peanut butter we're happy. And here so if you did want to buy lunch here it seems like it's between $15 and $16 per plate. For us we like saving money, we're budget travelers so bringing your own snacks is what we always do. So you have some options. So we're just gonna eat these and then I think get in the water. It looks like they got a water slide. They do have a water slide and there are so many little fish swimming around the dock and some huge needlefish. Yeah do some more snorkeling. Ahhh as you can see we are on dry land. I know when we left you we were in the water snorkeling. We sure were and we were having such a good time we neglected to see the time and everyone was on the boat they're like hello hello it's time to go! So we hopped on quick but when we were in there there was some beautiful schools of these little tiny fish. We saw crabs, Christmas Tree Worms, there were Snappers, Sergeant Majors. Heidi spotted this really cool spotted ray. Yeah! The coral was great. We kind of just swam around under the docks I loved it. Yeah me too. And then there was a slide as well. Well you saw that you saw us go in. Oh man that slide was quick. The water's like straight up your nose. So either pinch it and when you hit the water it's pretty shallow so keep your feet up my bum hit the bottom so. Yeah and as always when you're in the ocean please respect the coral. We saw some people standing at it which is a big No-No Coral is a living animal. And then after that actually we thought we were gonna go to Playa Estrella which is on Isla Colon in the Northwest. But we went to Estrella de Mar which is sea stars. It was like this little island and there was just a bunch of sea stars surrounding it which was pretty neat. It was pretty neat. It was like a nice slow cruise everyone got a chance to look it was it was really good. Yeah but we definitely recommend doing this tour. We went through Coopeguiatour. Yep it's a local Coo-op. So they just kind of filled the boats all the local people get like their own little option and everyone makes the same amount which is really nice. We did the tour number two so you can do that when you come here. There's a really loud truck coming this way so we gotta wrap this up right now. So why don't we, we'll see you back in town. Thanks for coming along! Welcome back we hope you had an amazing time I know we sure did. It was such a great day we got so lucky with that weather. But right now we are actually at the point where the boats are taking over to Isla Caranero. I think it's just a couple bucks to go over there just takes a couple of minutes and as we haven't had the chance to explore it and the sun is staying out for us today which is exciting. I hope it stays I hope it stays! Why don't we head over there. Let's do it. Come along. And that was easy. Yeah we just walked down they got us a boat here. He said it's two dollars each. He said where do you want to go? I said I don't know. And he said how about the Playa? So I was like all right we'll go to the little beach over here. He actually said yeah playaita so we're going to a small beach which is great! Woo this Breeze feels so good. I know refreshing! We made it. Wow, first Impressions... this place looks sweet! Boom! Walking the plank. That's right! Welcome To Paradise! I was just checking out the map here because I wanted to see where we were. You can see that little blue dot there on the eastern side. And you might notice this island has no roads. The only Island here in the archipelago that has roads is Isla Colon. There is a green little pathway all the way around the island here. It takes about one hour to hike. I don't think we're gonna do that I think we're just gonna chill out here on the beach and then maybe head back down towards the southern side. On the boat when we were coming here we saw that it had clubs and all these really neat accommodations that were over the water that could be a good choice for you when you visit. So yeah let's just hang out here and check it out together. It really is so beautiful back here. Oh my gosh in a coconut literally just almost fell on Adam's head! Oh! I just heard this huge thud! So there are palm trees. They have coconuts on them so you need to be very careful with where you're gonna you know choose to sit like we said when we were over on Zapatilla. That was so scary. Well this video could have totally went a different way. This coconut almost just took my life right here. Oh shoot. It looks really big and heavy. It does. They're delicious but they're dangerous too people. Yeah so you gotta look up like I said. See all right there. Let's get out of here. Let's get out of here I'm done! But I was gonna point out over here it's like a little swamp area. So the trees are like these craggy trees it kind of feels like if you were dropped off on a deserted island. It's got a really unique feel. We walked down just a few minutes and that beautiful white sand beach has sort of turned into more of a coconut graveyard behind us here. Oh yeah look. There's a huge pile of them. That's why that one came after me. He came after me as retaliation. I've had my fair share of coconuts in my day. Yeah there you go he's like not me sir! So we're actually just gonna head back down and go back towards the south side of the island maybe get some food and just see what we find. Maybe a drink? Yeah sounds good. And I can definitely see the draw of staying here you know away from the liveliness away from the town. It's a lot more tranquil and relaxed. But what's nice is you can have the best of both worlds you know. Where we are everything is around us all the supermarket so it's easy and restaurants to eat but then just a couple minute boat ride you can come here and be surrounded by... These cutie doggies! Hi! He's like I don't want anything to do with you sister. They got places to go. Yeah well let's go with them I want to go to those places! And I love that as we're walking along you're just kind of going through people's yards on the water. Ocean on one side. On the other side people just living their lives. This lady's back here burning some coconut husks and cooking up bread with it. And you'll see that there's about 200 pairs of underwear hanging up between the trees here. I'm guessing it's been raining for three or four days so you got to take the opportunity to clean when you can! Yeah sun's out it's laundry day. That's right sun's out guns out and hang your underwear. This looks a little interesting I think my gymnastics background will come in handy here. Walk the plank there me Hearties! Don't get too sassy! And we were walking past this property here and we just saw like movement going like this and there's hundreds of those little crabs here. I think there's security for this place. Like don't come too close! And as you're walking down the beach you are gonna pass some restaurants. This is the first one we've seen it's BiBi's at the Beach. On the beach. It's Bibi's on the Beach. I also can't read that's how hungry I'm getting. We were actually recommended a different restaurant though so we're gonna keep walking down but this one looks pretty good too! And if you're a surfer or you're looking to learn how to surf Bocas is the place to come. As you can see there are a lot of schools all over. And we've heard that you just can just hop on a boat, tell them where you want to go and they'll take you out there and you can catch some waves. So it could be a good time! I love it. It is getting warm out here and you know what we're walking by they're actually cutting the Coconuts out of the trees probably for safety and to make a little money. And he's like I can chop one up for you for one dollar. And that's what he's doing right here! Gracias! Okay. Oh yeah oh that's a good one. Uno mas. Yeah we're gonna do two. He wants his own. Woah! Nice coconuts babe. Adam! Gracias! Here they are so good. They look so heavy! They're really heavy. There's tons of water in here. Let's do this! Exactly what I needed. And just a couple steps away we have found ourselves here at Receta Michila I think that's the name. A lady in town at one of the shops, I asked her what her favorite restaurants was - which is a great way to figure out kind of the local scene, and she recommended this spot so let's head on in. What a meal! We were just talking and we said that was probably the best food we've had since Mexico. In months! My mouth is like still just feeling all those little flavors in it. I'm so excited! So we ended up getting the beet salad and it was topped with smoked cheese and tossed in a passion fruit dressing with lime. And then we also got the vegetable curry that was served with coconut rice. And in a coconut in case there wasn't enough coconut already. And we ended up talking to the chef Joseph for a while. And we learned about his story. So I guess 30 years ago the restaurant actually used to be his mother's and now he owns it. And he said that his actual, like his driving force is looking for beauty in life as well as food. So he spent the last 20 or 30 years traveling around the world getting new techniques from Paris going to Italy getting all these things so we could bring him back and take the Panamanian food and then just elevate it a little bit. And he did that! It was more than just a little bit he really elevated it. And what else we learned that was really neat. That lady Adam showed you who was baking the bread, he uses the bread! So he works with all of the farmers around here you know it's a Farm to Table Restaurant. He wants... Hola! He wants you to taste the flavors of the islands, of Bocas. And you know that influence is there you can definitely feel it, taste it. For sure even that cheese that was smoked. They smoke it with the local coconut husk so you're getting that flavor in everything that you have here. Yeah as you can tell we are just really excited. I feel like lately we've just been sitting down and eating food. And eating for the purpose of eating. But this, this made me so happy. Yeah so thank you so much Joseph. He also has another restaurant called Octo that's in town that we are going to go to tonight. If it's half as good as that it's gonna be great! It's gonna be Octolicious. All right let's keep going. And they have some very cool and unique accommodations. There's like four individual ones right here and then a lighthouse. I just walked down there there's also a bar and restaurant at the end of the pier. And in between I saw this guy casting his fishing net he gave me a thumbs up. It's really nice here I'm I'm enjoying the vibe. Yeah me too. We made a little turn off of the Beach Road and now we're walking down into the center of the island here. It's like a nice little community. All these houses the colors the laundry hanging outside. I like it. Oh and the chickens don't forget about them! Oh he ate a crab! Look! He just ate one of those fiddler crabs and left a little fiddle hook there. He needs that! That's the best part. Oh here you go buddy! Oh he ate it! Now that our tummies are full and we've done a bit more exploring I think it's time for another stop. Oh yeah we got one left in us today. And I'm quite thirsty aren't you? Me too! And I know just the spot so come with us. Welcome to the Floating Bar! Yes you heard that right we are on a floating bar! I mean it's just kind of surrounded by mangroves. It's two stories and so relaxing. And you know we got some drinks. I went with the margarita. And I got the classic rum punch. And we both already tried them they are so good! We did they are delicious. Mine's very coconut forward as it should be. And I feel like that's just so appropriate for where we are. Oh absolutely. And I like they didn't put the Grenadine in it to make it that red color because it's just not too sweet nice and rummy. But look behind us here they got the two stories and some platforms out here. They said it's open from 12 until 5 except for Monday's they have live music so it's opened a bit later. Yeah until the party stops. Yeah woo hoo! Well we heard that there was some good snorkeling around here so we are going to do that after we're done with our drinks. Head back have some dinner at Octo. And then tomorrow you know where we're going? We are going to... Do you know? I think it's Isla Bastimentos. Bastimentos! Yes! He listens! He listens! I did it happens once in a while it just kind of like wiggles its way in. I'm in shock. But yes we're just gonna enjoy this thank you so much for joining us today. It was so much fun and I'm so glad that the weather turned up. Yes me too, it's incredible. But yeah we will see you tomorrow morning over on the other island. Hey hey! And welcome to Isla Bastimentos! This morning we came over on a boat and it was... I don't know quite interesting I'd say. Yeah let's just call it an interesting experience. Instead of taking one of like the bigger boats we actually got on a smaller one and there were big waves so we were like doing this the whole time. He's like wait wait stop the boat we need to reorganize all the luggage in the front of the boat. And we're going like two miles per hour so it took quite a while to get here. But we made it, took a walk around and it's really cool. It's a lot different than Bocas town and yeah we're enjoying it. It is so colorful and quiet here like all the houses have those pastel colors. You know people are just strolling around. There's no cars here so it's just like one sidewalk that kind of cruises around through the main town which is not very big. I think you could walk it maybe in 10 minutes. So why don't we go check it out with you guys. Let's do it! And here on the island Old Bank is the only settlement. Here we're staying at Bastimentos Hill. There are a few other places to stay, accommodations that we have seen along the way. This place is really nice. It's like a labyrinth actually. It's quite big and it's bright yellow made of wood and it has such a great view of the water and the surrounding town. So we definitely recommend it. And while you're walking around here you're gonna notice that it kind of looks similar to a Puerto Viejo in Costa Rica. You know a lot of the population here are descendants of Jamaicans that came to work on the banana plantations here. So it's definitely got that Afro-Caribbean feel especially you know in the food and just the way of life. It's just a really interesting and neat place to be and we're just soaking it all up. And on the island you're going to notice a ton of really beautiful colorful flowers as well as these fruit bearing trees. Right here is some breadfruit how cool is that! And definitely pick up some provisions before you come over from Bocas town because there is only a very small supermarket here as well as some places like this that sell fruit. This is the fruit lady you go knock on the door she lets you in and you pick up some fruit. Yeah I wouldn't call that other one a supermarket just a little store. It's more like a mini market how about that. Yeah. As you're walking through town you will come to the Central Park. It's a colorful place to sit and just kind of watch the locals living their lives. Here is a basketball court/soccer field where we've seen some kids having a great time. This is also the main dock in town so most of the boats are coming and going from here. And right next to the park is a restaurant Lysset that we heard was supposed to be delicious so if you're feeling a little peckish this could be the place for you! And we just met this local his name was Stefan I asked him what language they speak here because we've been hearing it around but we can't like put our finger on it and he said it's Guari-Guari. It's a mix of Spanish, French and English. That's very interesting. I feel like normal Patois which is what they speak in Jamaica is just like a French and English kind of slang mix so they throw the Spanish in here to give it a little extra spice. Yeah he said in school they have to learn Spanish so I think that's how it got you like introduced into it which yeah it's just it's beautiful to hear. But it's kind of confusing because you know over in Bocas Town you're saying hola and speaking Spanish to everyone and then here you know they're like hello and then sometimes throw on the Hola. Or whatever you know. Or a wagwan. It's really cool and just yeah just a different feeling you know. And that culture and that local experience. We're really loving it. So as you can see the island is really laid back and quiet. I will say except for the roosters. You're gonna want to go to bed early because you will be woken up at four or five a.m. They're relentless early in the morning. I'm like all right we see you we hear you! In addition to all the roosters there's also a lot of dogs just kind of hanging out, laying in the road playing with kids. They're quite cute. And something that is pretty unique there are parrots sitting on people's window sills, or on their front steps. I guess that they're pets. Yeah I think so. And if you're looking to do more than just sort of hang out and lay in a hammock which is okay there's also a couple of other beaches on the island. There's wizard Beach and Red Frog Beach which has a nice resort on it so if that's what you're looking for that might be a good option. And from here you can walk there but since it's been raining we heard that the trail is quite muddy. And we actually saw people come back yesterday filthy. Multiple people like covered in mud. So we're gonna avoid walking to Wizard Beach but yeah you can also take a boat like Adam mentioned to Red Frog which is supposed to be one of the most beautiful beaches you know in the archipelago here. So definitely check it out! Yeah but I guess this ends our trip here. It's kind of sad because it's been so much fun taking you around this whole area, exploring the islands, just enjoying that nice Caribbean Vibe! Yeah being here in Panama! Definitely enjoying it and it's just our first step. I know I'm so excited to see more. Yeah so thank you so so much for joining us if you enjoyed this video please give us a big...
