(Panama Travel Group) Nestled along the coast of Veraguas Province in Panama is the small town of Santa Catalina. For years surfers, deep sea fishermen, and scuba divers have come to this pristine destination for fun and adventure. Unfortunately, the difficulty and time involved in getting to Santa Catalina has kept many from making the trip. Even with improved roads it turns into a day on the road both ways from Panama City to visit Santa Catalina. That is about to change!
As of March 18, 2011, you will be able to fly Santa Catalina for an exclusive Panama Travel Group tour. You will fly from Albrook Airport and arrive at the Lago Bay airstrip 11 kilometers from Santa Catalina in less than an hour from Panama City. You will be met by ground transportation to take you to your hotel. The world will shrink and just an hour from Panama City you will be able to enjoy world class sport fishing, some of the best surfing on the Pacific Coast of the Americas, and spectacular scuba diving.
Scuba Diving in the Waters off Panama
Panama Travel Group will offer both weekend (Friday to Sunday) and week long (Sunday to Friday) tours. The Lago Bay development has the only airstrip in the vicinity of Santa Catalina. It is a tranquil setting with its own excellent fishing, both in salt water in the fresh water lagoons on the property. From this pristine location ground transport will take each individual to his hotel from where his own Santa Catalina adventure will start.
The price of flying one way to Santa Catalina will be $301.59 while round trip will cost $201.06 x 2 = $402.12. These prices are based upon full occupancy.
