Isla Zapatilla – #3 Most Beautiful Beaches in Bocas del Toro
Coming in at #3 on our "Top Ten Beaches of Bocas del Toro Countdown" are Las Islas Zapatillas. This pristine and remote set of islands offers by far the best place in the entire Bocas del Toro archipelago to completely escape and “get away’ from it all. A half hour boat ride from Isla Colon (on a fast ponga) Zapatilla is composed of two breathtakingly beautiful islands that emerge from the surrounding coral reef. They are protected as a part [...]
Starfish Beach – #4 Most Beautiful Beach in Bocas del Toro (Playa Estrella)
Coming in at #4 is Starfish Beach – Unlike any other beach in Bocas del Toro, Starfish Beach (or "Playa Estrella") is located on the remote, unexposed side of Isla Colón. The shoreline is shaped like a bay, so it doesn’t catch any swell - making for placid turquoise waters and a relaxed vibe. There is room for a volleyball court, a couple small restaurants, and the newest addition to the beach activities - along with kayaks and floating lounge [...]

Wizard Beach – #5 Most Beautiful Beach in Bocas del Toro
This magical stretch of land is a favorite among many for its expansive beach, ample privacy, gorgeous surroundings and consistent surf. The beach is tucked away in an untouched region of Isla Bastimentos, and is only accessible on foot or by boat (when the surf will allow it). Our favorite way to reach this spot is to make a day of it. Take a lancha boat from Isla Colon to the main dock in Bastimentos town. Hike up to the [...]

Polo Beach – #7 Most Beautiful Beach in Bocas del Toro
One of the most beautiful stretches of beach on Isla Bastimentos, this secluded section of coastline is ringed by a gorgeous coral reef, keeping the water calm and providing one of the most optimal environments in Bocas del Toro for snorkeling. It's very likely that you'll be the only ones enjoying Polo Beach on any particular day, as it's only accessible by jungle hike or direct shoreline access by boat during calmer seas. The beach gets its name from an [...]
La Piscina – #8 Most Beautiful Beach in Bocas del Toro
A hidden treasure, this cove is so secluded that we can't spoil it's secrecy by publishing it's exact whereabouts! We will say that it's in a remote stretch of Isla Colon, tucked away from everything, including the open ocean. A narrow water inlet feeds the Caribbean Sea into a football-field-sized turquoise green pool, surrounded by jungle and filled with colorful coral and starfish. As far as romance goes, it doesn't get any better - you just need to figure out [...]

Carenero Beach – #9 Most Beautiful Beach in Bocas del Toro
