These ferries can take you to the Islands for a small price. The popularity of the Isla de Las Perlas was boosted by the CBS Broadcasting television show Survivor.

One and a half hours from Panama City is Bolaños. An island of extreme beauty, which attracts both national tourism and foreign visitors.
