panama San Blas KiteCruise
The San Blas archipelago is made up of 367 Islands. There is almost no western development and very little tourism here. Only 1 out of 10 islands are inhabited! The desert islands are surrounded by crystal clear water and coral reefs full of tropical marine life. It has been said to be one of the top destinations on the planet to sail and kitesurf. You will meet the local people of the islands called the Kuna. With a fascinating culture they are a wonderful example of how an indigenous population can flourish and maintain their ancient customs. They are sure to give you a friendly and warm welcome.

Example Itinerary
Day 1
We set off at 5 am for a 3-hour drive to the small Kuna Port. We then board a small Kuna boat to take us on a short ride to the yacht. Once everyone has settled in on the boat we will set sail for the first set of islands.
There is also the option to fly into the San Blas in a small charter plane we can arrange.
Day 2-4
We normally stay at a spot for a day and then set sail the following afternoon for the next kite spot. Our route is flexible depending on conditions and if the group wants to stay at a spot for longer.
Day 5-7
Depending on the groups level we have the option to do a down or cross winder to the next set of islands. If there is a day without wind, we can do a jungle hike to a waterfall.
Day 8
After a morning at the islands, we start to make our way back to Panama City. Once we arrive there we go for a few drinks to finish our adventure.
