Expedition Itinerary

---

From pick up at our private hanger in Panama City to easy check-in at our boutique hotels; we ensure you have a smooth and relaxed experience.

We have curated what we believe to the best blend of incredible SCUBA diving with time to relax and enjoy each of our stunning locations.

Bocas Del Toro

Here you have the option to increase the amount of SCUBA diving if you want or use the free time to explore the islands of the archipelago.  Our partners can whisk you away to tropical beaches where you can snorkel in coral paradise or go dolphin watching, spot sloths, birds and monkeys, with a cocktail or two at your side. 

Santa Catalina

Our luxurious resort offers space for you to walk the expansive beach, laze in day beds next to the pool, enjoy a private yoga or massage session by the sea or enjoy more adventurous tours or surfing.
