Bocas del Toro Surf Vacation


View Bocas Interactive Map in a larger map


Located on Isla Colon, the main Island of Bocas, the House rental focuses on small groups of 4 to 6 surfers and uses its private boat to deliver guests to a variety of surf spots of all levels.

The Bocas House Rental is managed and owned by Juan Pablo a local Panamanian Surfer / Wakeboarder who worked for a 4 star hotel previously to opening his own operation and Kelly, his loving wife who takes care of the restaurant.  Every group that stays at house rental has exclusivity to the accommodations, boat, and staff.

Staying at the Bocas House Rental is perfect for surfing and enjoying the easy Caribbean hospitality that is naturally exposed in Bocas Town.  The mayority of the waves are within 15-20 min boat ride from the private dock. The house has its own boats (surfing / fishing) and (wake boarding) allowing participants to surf, fish or wake when ever they desire without compromise.

The Bocas House Rental is also in the heart of Bocas Town, for participants who look for other dinning options, grocery stores, taxis or night life in town is very convenient and safe.

This accommodation option offers additional activities, from diving course certifications by PADI, boat trips to Bird Island, Starfish Beach, Wakebaording, Fishing, Snorkeling and Yoga are all individual activities that can be coordinated once you are there.  This allows flexibility and options!

“COLON CARIBBEAN SURF TRIP”


DAY 1 PANAMA CITY ARRIVAL

Once you arrive the Republic of Panama you will be met by a surf host and private vehicle at the International Airport of Panama and taken to a Panama City Hotel.

DAY 2 PACIFIC TO ATLANTIC COAST DRIVE

Early this morning we will meet the group in one of our transportation vehicles. Our drive is about 2 hours to get to the beachfront accommodations offered. Along the way we will see colorful Caribbean towns and culture. We will settle our stuff in the hotel and head out directly to surf.

DAY 3 COLON SURF

After a great breakfast (fruits, coffee, etc). We will take another boat ride along the river down to the coast and will pick the best surf break of choice. For the surf trips that involve non surfers, there is a bar, swimming pool and deck overlooking the main surf spot.

DAY 4 COLON SURF

The Central Caribbean coast surf is as good as Bocas del Toro and even more exposed to NE swell. There are tons of secrets spots that not many people know about. In total there are about 5 spots that are worth a short boat ride from the accommodations and we will be able to access every one of them with flexibility.

DAY 5 COLON SURF

The fairy tale repeats again! breakfast is served overlooking the surf; egg, toast, with top quality coffee or tea. Your boat will be waiting one more time and ready to demonstrate that you are now more confident to the colon surf experience. For the ones staying wish them great luck in their activities and for the ones surfing enjoy the ride! 

DAY 6 COLON SURF

Dejavu! been there done that... We know where we want to go surf today and make the best out of it as its the last day of the surf in the Caribbean Buay!

San Blas Surf Vacation

San Blas is one of the new surf destinations in Panama. For many years people wondered about this as a surf destination. We have been able to prove and test logistics to make this possible. When you jump on a San Blas surf trip, you would not just be experiencing a surf trip but also a strong cultural experience!

San Carlos Surf Vacation

The San Carlos region is part of the gulf of Panama. Its the closest area to Panama City when it comes down to short term surf trips. We recommend this area for beginners or day trips.

Venao Surf Vacation

Venao is one of the classic surf spots in Panama. It has a set of 3 main sand bars (Left, Right / Left and Right) in 1 bay. The fun caters to beginners with reforms in the inside section of the break, intermediate advanced surfers on the outside section.

Cambutal Surf Vacation

Quite deep in the furthest SW point in the Republic of Panama is where Cambutal is located. If you want to truly escape from a City this is the place to be. Barely any people at this point and plenty of fun surf year round.
