Where Panama yacht charters leave from

Flamenco Marina on the Amador Causeway is the main dock; La Playita de Amador on Naos Island, Balboa Yacht Club at the canal entrance, Fuerte Amador and Ocean Reef Marina in Punta Pacífica board specific boats. Your confirmation names the dock, the slip and the arrival time; arrive 20 to 30 minutes early. Every marina, with GPS and a boarding note, is on Panama departure marinas.

Flamenco Marina (Amador)

The largest boats board here, for Panama Bay and Taboga routes, with the skyline across the water from the dock.

Ocean Reef and Balboa Yacht Club

By arrangement: gate access at Ocean Reef and tender pickups at Balboa are confirmed the day before.

Panama yacht charter prices by route

The boat sets the price, the route sets the hours, and fuel is charged for the distance, which is why the same boat costs more for Contadora than for the bay. Boat by boat, the figures are on Panama yacht charter prices.

Panama Bay cruise, 3 to 5 hours

The skyline, the Casco Viejo bayline, Amador and the canal entrance: from about $800 on a 33 ft boat to $1,900 on a 55 ft yacht.

Taboga Island day, 6 to 8 hours

Forty-five to sixty minutes each way, swim coves and the village: from about $1,400.

Contadora and the Pearl Islands, 8 to 10 hours

Thirty-five to forty nautical miles each way: from about $2,200 on the fast boats and $3,740 on the 54 ft catamaran.

What is included

Captain and crew, ice and water, safety gear and Bluetooth sound. Fuel is charged by route at checkout; the tip is at your discretion.

Best time of year to charter in Panama

The dry season, December to April, has the calmest Pacific and the clearest water. Green-season afternoons bring short storms, so mornings are booked first and the captain watches the sky. Humpback whales pass the Pearl Islands from July to October.

Pick the route, pick the boat by guest count, pay the crew and fuel online to hold the date, and settle the boat balance at the dock in cash, Zelle or card. WhatsApp replies in English and Spanish from 8 am to 8 pm Panama time.
