Has anyone been to Panama City in Panama?? |
Travel Info Is there beaches in Panama City or do you have to travel out of the city? How far is the Panama Canal from the city? Travel Tips Hi. I live in Panama, and I can assure you that there are no beaches in the greater metropolitan area of Panama City. Unfortunately the Bay of Panama is contaminated by sewage, so you have to go outside Panama City to get a clean beach. The good beaches closest to the city are: Punta Chame Gorgona Coronado Punta Barco El Palmar San Carlos Any of those beaches are good, and they are about 50 miles from the city, so it's about 1 hour by car. The Panama Canal is practically close to Panama City. Actual distances from the business district of Panama City to the visitors center are around 20 to 25 miles. The problem is traffic, that will make the 25 mile trip last a goo 45 minutes to 1 hour. Others Sure, lots of people. Some folks even live there. Yes i was there in Feb/march of this year.NO beach in the city.The breezeway is kind of cool.the canal is 10 to15 MN away by taxi from downtown.Nice country,beautiful people,i would go back tomorrow now that i know what to do and where to go. |
