Review & FAQ:

Located in the province of Veraguas, Santa Catalina is another of Panama's coastal gems. This sleepy fishing village has seen quite a surge in popularity in recent years as word has started to spread among backpackers and surfers about the great beach here. Santa Catalina's waves can provide a real challenge to surfing enthusiasts, and it's a nice spot for diving, swimming, and fishing, along with romantic strolls in the early mornings or late in the evening.
