What those who have already lived say San Blas

Carlos Sinesi
It was truly a wonderful experience. We stayed for three days and really wanted to stay much longer. The beauty of the islands and learning a little more about the Kuna culture were amazing. The crew was spectacular. Gaby, Yam, and Orlando dedicated themselves every day to making our stay a pleasure. The food they prepared for us was truly delicious, and the service was excellent. The catamaran was impeccably clean. I hope to repeat another trip with San Blas on Board, Yoli, and the excellent crew. We will recommend them to our friends so they can enjoy this experience. Until next time.
Matias
We were a group of 12 and chartered two catamarans to tour the archipelago. Without a doubt, the experience is absolutely worth it. They pick you up at your hotel and take you directly to your destination; you don't have to worry about a thing, and the place is truly paradise. Our skipper was Arvin, and he's a 10. Super professional, discreet, and he makes some killer drinks. He tailored the itinerary to our requests, and he's a pleasure to chat with. As for Jei, he prepares finger-licking food. The ceviche and coconut flan are unbeatable. Thanks for everything.
Dear Obando
I stayed on the Yoli with my partner and it was a wonderful experience! The attention from the entire crew is incredible, the food is delicious, and they suggested different plans for us to explore San Blas. We'll be back soon because we fell in love from the day we set foot on the boat!
Mauri Perez
We had a wonderful time! The catamaran and the islands were dreamy! The highlight was the crew. Gaby, Jhai, and Orlando were incredibly attentive to everything! Professional in their duties, respectful, and affectionate, they made our stay excellent! Everything was always carefully prepared! Their meals were delicious, and the daily menu was very good! I would do it again! I will recommend it to my friends. A 10!
Fernando
The San Blas archipelago is a marvel. It's the perfect example of a tropical paradise, and although it's not a cheap destination, it's an absolute must-see on a trip to Panama. The experience of visiting it on a catamaran was very positive, highly recommended. A special mention to Amanda. From the first moment we contacted her, she was especially attentive, answering any questions we had and explaining everything in great detail, which greatly helped us decide to book with San Blas on Board.

Frequently asked questions

Our prices start at USD 275 per night per person, all inclusive except transportation from Panama City to San Blas and entry taxes in Guna Yala. The final price depends on the type of boat you choose (sailboat or catamaran), whether it's private or shared, the number of people on board, the size and model of the boat, the crew, and the season.

To confirm your reservation, we require a 15% deposit of the total amount, which can be paid by bank transfer, Wise, or credit card (Visa or Mastercard). 

The remaining balance is payable in cash on the day of embarkation or, depending on the vessel, between 30 and 7 days before embarkation via bank transfer. We recommend checking the specific terms and conditions for each vessel, as they may vary depending on the vessel and crew.

It is recommended to avoid rigid or oversized suitcases, as they can be uncomfortable during the 4x4 transfer and boat ride to the ship. Ideally, pack light luggage in backpacks or soft bags that are easy to store on board.

If you prefer, you can leave your large luggage at your hotel in Panama City and only bring what you need for the days at sea.

Vehicles other than 4x4s are not allowed at the border with Guna territory, so it's essential to comply with this requirement. Parking is available at the port for an additional fee (around USD 5 per day). Remember to bring your driver's license and vehicle documents, as there is a Guna Congress checkpoint along the way.
