Panama, a relatively small country, is home to a number of animals. Sloths, parrots, anteater, quetzal live here, while humpback whales, leatherback sea turtles, whale sharks swim in the waters – this is only a small part of the beautiful creatures that inhabit this country of crystal clear water and thick jungles.

Particularly exciting will be the study of the old military ship that sunk here. The tranquility of the “Dog Island” is invariably transmitted to its guests. In addition, the island is known for its bioluminescence, which can be observed during a moonlit night.
