A big statement indeed but I would bet on it to be true! I have traveled to many countries around the world from the Himalayas to South America and Europe to the South Pacific, and Panama is one of the most dynamic countries in the World. I mean where else in the world can you have breakfast in the Pacific, Lunch in the Atlantic and sip coffee for sunset in a volcano 5000 feet above seal level all in the same day. And that is possible without really exerting yourself. In panama you can be strolling the streets of the historical Casco Viejo, then take a ferry to Taboga Island for the day, come back to the city in the afternoon, be at a 5 star restaurant in the evening and then try your luck at one of many Casinos afterwards. This is a typical day for people visiting panama.
I recently had a guest from San Francisco who spent 2 weeks in panama vacationing. Afterwards it dawned on me that they had just been to 4 different islands (Taboga, Contadora, San Jose & Bocas del Toro), 3 different mountain ranges (El Valle, Boquete & Volcan), 2 oceans (Atlantic & Pacific), several yachts, boats, horses, atv’s, motorcycles and a few commuter planes, all within a short distance and without stressing out. And yet, they still left without visiting The San Blas Islands, Isla Grande, Portobello, El Darien, the Embera Indians, Pedasi, Las Tablas and the list goes on. So what am I saying? Panama – like its name, which means “abundance of fish”, has an abundance of natural beautiful places to visit and indulge in; all in a friendly and inexpensive atmosphere.
For anyone thinking of Panama as a travel destination, a new home, a second home, a place to retire or a place to invest do business and make money, Panama has an abundance of opportunity for everyone. Panama’s government has created many incentives for foreigners to conduct business, obtain business and become residents. That is why many Canadians are coming to Panama, people from all over the US and Europe have finally found Paradise.
There are many resorts that are being built just to accommodate all the foreigners that are coming to live or invest in Panama. Just 30 minutes from Panama is Punta Chame a white sandy beach peninsula that is a haven for windsurfers and kite surfers is now going to become an area dotted with housing projects, hotels and Casinos. Not far from there is a popular Panamanian weekend retreat, Coronado Beach, which has an 18 hole golf course and all the modern amenities. Then there is Vista Mar located in San Carlos which has a 5 star restaurant, villas, 18 hole golf course all in a gated community.
Just 20 minutes from there will be the most talked about project in Panama – The Bijao Beach Resort, located in a pristine beach area, this resort will have villas and a stunning building called Chichibali. Other projects popping up in the area are Buenaventura and Playa Blanca Beach Resort, amongs others.
Other popular residential areas being built include Midpoint Panama in Penonome, which is quickly becoming a very popular resort area, this resort will also have a golf course and be located in a nice and safe community. There is also La Pintada Estates in La Pintada, with its spectacular mountain views also very close to Penonome. And a recent addition is the Panama Waterfalls project, a nice rural development located at the entrance to El Valle.
These and many other projects to come will make living in Panama a much more attractive destination and a playground for people of all ages from all walks of life. Panama is not just a journey it’s a Destination!
