The climate of San Blas
The San Blas archipelago consists of 378 islands off the Caribbean coast of Panama. Many of the islands still have the original inhabitants of Panama, the Kuna Indians. Near the islands you can swim and snorkel very well, but diving with equipment is prohibited here. The most popular islands are Achutupu, Kagantupu and Coco Blanco. It is that the Kuna Indians try to hold back and at least severely inhibit tourism here, otherwise these islands with their pearly white beaches and coconut palms could become one of the most exclusive holiday destinations in the world. The reef off the coast here is the best preserved in the world.
