Portobelo

Portobelo

Portobelo is a small Caribbean town with old Spanish forts sitting right by the blue sea. Long ago it was a busy port where treasure was loaded onto ships.

Visitors love climbing on the ancient cannons and stone walls while learning about pirates and treasure ships. The mix of history, green hills, and calm sea makes it a special place to explore.

Forts by the Sea

Strong stone forts were built here to protect the treasure from pirates. Today you can walk on the walls and see the old cannons still pointing out to sea.

Treasure Port

Long ago, gold and silver from far away were gathered here before sailing across the ocean. That is why so many pirates once wanted to attack this little town.

Green Hills and Blue Water

Portobelo sits in a pretty bay surrounded by jungle-covered hills and calm blue water. Small boats float by while birds call from the green trees.
