“Come Surf Panama’s 2010Good surfing locations in Panama include Bocas del Toro, and Isla Grande on the Caribbean side of Panama. And on the Pacific Ocean side of Panama the waves call your name from the beaches at Chiriqui, Santa Catalina, Cambutal, Venado and San Carlos. Some surfers try the Panama City waves at Punta Teta or Cepillo.
“The surf in Panama is year-round, with the most consistent conditions occurring on the Pacific coast between March through November, and on the Atlantic Coast November through April. But what makes a trip to Panama an especially fine wintertime option is the prevailing wind: blowing out of the north during the dry season between December and April, this means clean offshores on the Pacific side.”
With ocean on both the West and East side of Panama, one should not discount the tropical setting and experience offered on the Caribbean Coast. Just a short flight from Panama City gets you into the Bocas Del Toro region. Stated one expert. “The Caribbean coast (Bocas del Toro and Isla Grande) receives strong swell from November through April, plus June and July, due to wind and cold fronts to the north. August is generally smaller, but there is still some surf in Bocas. September and October are normally flat on the Caribbean coast, but sometimes they get some swell during those months with the hurricanes in the Caribbean pushing swells in.”
