Contadora Island Vacations

Contadora Island is situated approximately 40 miles (64 kilometers) southeast of Panama City, the country's capital.

Contadora Island has some interesting places to visit. Playa Ejecutiva and Playa Galeon are both worth checking out.

It's little wonder the area around Contadora Island is such a hotspot for travelers from all over the world; Panama is an Aladdin's Cave of fascinating sights and attractions. Isla San Telmo and Taboga are two more places you may wish to visit while you're in Panama.

Visitors to Panama often head to the area's open-air markets.

Ensure you pack hiking shoes so you can join one of the guided nature walks. This area has a number of great places to enjoy scuba diving, so make sure you fit that into your itinerary. Swimming is another watersport here.

Experience the culinary arts of Panama by trying out the food enjoyed here. Popularly used ingredients in this part of the world are rice and plantains. Don't wrap up your time in the area without trying out tamales (corn dough rolls) and also corvina (baked fish). And when it is time for the final course, why not try raspados (ice topped with sweet syrup). If you like to relax with a a quality brew, try out Balboa. It's widely available in Panama. Taste a resbaladera (chilled barley and rice drink), an non-alcoholic Panama drink that is very common in Panama.

And at the end of your journey, pack your baggage and wish Contadora Island "Adiós" (farewell).
