The San Blas Islands are a string of tiny tropical islands with white sand and clear turquoise water. They are cared for by the Guna people, who have lived here for a very long time.
People love these islands for their calm warm water, swaying palm trees, and peaceful quiet away from the busy city. It feels like a storybook island where you can snorkel and relax all day.
The Guna people run the islands their own way and make beautiful colorful cloth called molas by hand. Visitors can learn about their traditions and buy their pretty crafts.
The shallow clear water is full of colorful fish, starfish, and even old shipwrecks to explore. It is one of the best places to try snorkeling for the first time.
Small boats take visitors from one little island to another, each with its own beach and palm trees. Some islands are so tiny you can walk around them in just a few minutes.
