Why Study in Panama?
Panama’s most famous tourist attraction is the amazing Panama Canal, which connects the Atlantic and Pacific oceans since 1914. You will see one of the Seven Wonders of the Modern World! Nevertheless, Panama has so much more to offer! Visiting from gorgeous turquoise beaches to the coffee farms and rain forests of Chiriquí, Panama can be as relaxing or as thrilling as you prefer.
Among the gems you will find are deserted islands, scuba diving with whale sharks in the Pacific, snorkeling the rainbow reefs of Bocas del Toro or setting sail in virgin islands at the indigenous territory of Guna Yala. A true Panamanian paradise. If you rather stay in Panama City, you will encounter a culturally diverse, rough-edged yet sophisticated Central American city with lots of colonial history to tell. Modern commercial buildings blend with cobbled streets and Spanish colonial architecture of centuries past.
For the true adventurer, you may explore the ruins of Spanish forts on the Caribbean coast. Ask for pirate stories of the area! Panama’s most popular archipelagos are Bocas del Toro and the San Blas Islands in the Caribbean, as well as the Pearl Islands in the Pacific. In addition to air flight, it’s common for travelers to arrive to Panama City by land from the Western parts of Panama (Bocas del Toro and Boquete mainly), Costa Rica or by ferry boat from Cartagena, Colombia. An excellent choice to learn Spanish while having fun at a unique nature-filled country.
