For those looking for a faster and more comfortable option, private charter flights are available from Panama City to Coiba Island.
There are no roads and only a few trails on the island. To reach the trails, dive sites, and snorkeling areas from the only campsite, you’ll need a boat. So, you’ll have to hire one for the duration of your stay.
