The 35-nautical mile cruise from Panama City to the north of the Archipelago takes 1.5 to 2.5 hours, depending on your chosen vessel. You can also add a quick cruise through the Panama Canal Area.

With the Pacific’s extreme tidal changes, many Islands with beautiful beaches come out exclusively at low tide, creating fleeting secret spots (and we know them all).

About the History of Pearl Islands

The Archipelago has an exciting history. Its name comes from the abundance of pearls in the area during the Spanish rule. The famous “Pilgrim” pearl was found in this area, owned by the Spanish King Philip II and later by actress Elizabeth Taylor. The Spanish conquistadors used Contadora Island as a stop for doing an inventory of booty before returning to Spain. Hence the name (Contadora, which means to count or bookkeeper in Spanish). It was also the exile site for the Shah of Iran in 1979. In modern times, the Archipelago has become a popular location for filming several international editions of the reality “Survivor.”
