Coiba Island really is a hidden paradise in Panama.  The largest island in Central America, it is located between the Azuero Peninsula and the Costa Rican boarder.  A former jail and surrounded by the Pacific Ocean, it is an oasis to intellectuals, adventurers or scientists who want to really discover a beautiful place.

 

Coiba Is an isolated, protected island that can only be visited with special permit from the ANAM, (the environmental office).  But if a person wants to spend a couple of hours or a night in a really secluded area, with primitive  and  rare species of animals, plants and trees, this is your place.
