Pedregal
New the city of David. Good for provisioning, flying out, etc, but a long trip up the river with a pilot.

Panamarina (Marina)
Located in the national Park of Portobelo (Rep. of Panamá), half a day sail away from either San-Blas islands or Colón, at the northern entrance of Panama canal, Panamarina is a perfect haven for your sailboat.
Whether you wish to prepare it for distant Pacific destinations, go back to your country for a few months or jump ship for a trip overland in Central or South America, your boat will be secure in all seasons, in the care of a team of serious, competent sailors.
Of course, the crew is not forgotten: restaurant-bar, showers, laundry and many others services are available to make for an easy and pleasant stay.
