I took the bus from Boquete to the nearby Bocas del Toro province. These islands are pretty much the mass tourism version of Guna Yala: Less pretty, covered in hostels and resorts, expensive, party and drugs available where, and a completely different composition of tourists (few Germans, mostly Americans and British, what a stereotype, but it is is true :/).
Well I am speaking here mainly about the Town of Bocas on the main island. Tomorrow I want to move to one of the smaller ones. I got some recommendations from Germany :D
look at the mountain ranges behind the grass :D
like Guna Yala, everything here works on water taxies. Piers are distributed along all the islands and function like bus stops.
you rarely see a beach or coastline. Houses and huts are usually build far into the water.
Bocas Town
my first hostel (a free Spanish Course is included here :D)
some Caribbean Food, the Taco Nest on the left is filled with squid, the right thing tastes basically like a well seasoned meatball. Both really good.
