EXPERIENCE

The Pearl Islands is an island-chain of paradise just an hour and a half away from the hustle and bustle of Panama City. Your journey into tranquility begins with a comfortable ferry ride on the Sea Las Perlas passenger ferry to the islands of the Pearl Islands Archipelago famous for its remote and clean, crystal clear water and white sand beaches.

Day Pass visitors enjoy a preview of what these islands have to offer; sun, fun and the perfect get-away. The Isla Bolaños Day Tour (Sonny Eco Resort) offers an uninhabited island with no roads or hotels, just an Eco Beach Club, 2 different accommodation options are also available on the island for overnight stay (Luxury Private wooden cabins, with shower, private bathroom in the room and A/C or private wooden huts for 2 people, with shared outdoor bathrooms), the rest is pure nature and sandy toes.

The islands are so unlike the city that they offer the perfect "timeout" break from a busy daily schedule.

You will feel refreshed by the experience of immersing yourself in the island waters and lifestyle you see around you; so close and so attainable. Historically, the Pearl Islands have always been the glistening pearl of Panama, coveted by all who sail into this tropical marine wonderland. From the 1600's when the Spanish discovered the pearl-rich islands, many politically prominent and wealthy people, as well as celebrities, continue to keep these islands on the map as the go-to destination of the rich and famous.

When you're in The Pearl Islands, it's not uncommon to trip across film crews from several countries here on location filming show segments for reality "Survivor" genre TV shows.

HOW TO GET TO ISLA FLAMENCO MARINA DOCK?

The Ferry has a new dock, located on the last island of the Amador Causeway, Flamenco Island at the beautiful Flamenco Marina dock, which seeks to provide a more comfortable and accessible alternative for all of their visitors.
Getting to the dock is very easy, from the city you can access the Amador Causeway from the Cinta Costera 3 in about 5 to 10 minutes, once arriving at the last island of the Causeway, called Flamenco Island you will find a large parking lot and a Duty Free shopping center called Fuerte Amador Marina that faces Panama City. 
​
As result of recently completed refurbishment work, this area has four lanes for better accessibility, a new parking lot right next to the dock and infrastructure for disabled. The Amador Causeway is actually quite the sight within itself and the improvements make the drive so much more enjoyable to visit this area of the City.

For those who are visiting the Causeway for the first time, as a reference point to locate the dock ask for the Amphora Duty Free Store. Remember, it is always recommended to arrive 45 minutes before your departure time to avoid missing the ferry.
The location oh the Flamenco Marina dock is also available on Google Maps.
We recommend arriving at the Dock using Uber or we can arrange for you a private transport from your Hotel in Panama City (cost $ 20 total for round trip).
