Sports

A country of Ironman Triathlons and worldwide surfing competitions, sports and other outdoor activities take priority. Tour the countryside as you bike up and around a volcano, tee off in an all-inclusive resort or catch fresh tuna to dine on right on the bow. Panama’s variety of game from offshore to inshore to freshwater is considered world-class, with 60+ lb (27 kg) mahi mahi and some of the best black marlin fishing in the Americas. For water sport enthusiasts, the waves in Bocas and Venao could not be beat. In search of a championship green? The 18-hole par 72 course with almost 7100 yards of professional play in Coronado offers a special treat.
