Colombia To Panama Sailing Tours

By Serena Price


Tourists have only two ways to get from Colombia to countries to the north - by air or by sea. If you fly, you miss the spectacular beauty of the Caribbean Sea that borders the country. If you go by boat, you have a choice of private yacht or commercial vessel. One of the best choices is to take a Colombia to Panama sailing trip, especially one that is approved by a reputable tour company.

It's a good idea to work with a specialized travel agency that can screen boats and captains who provide passenger service. There are complications to any international travel, and the personal service of experienced tour arrangers can minimize mistakes, expense, and other unpleasant surprises. Go online to find offers of help in arranging your adventure, and check out the agencies as you would any other commercial enterprise.

A five-day sailing trip is something that most people never experience. The Caribbean Ocean has some of the most beautiful waters and beaches in the world. These two countries were once part of the same Spanish colony but now have their own unique things to offer. However, sun, pristine white sandy beaches, and hundreds of islands inhabited by indigenous peoples are things that both share.

The five days or so you spend on board will truly expose you to the hypnotic lure of the sea. You'll sail through days and nights when all you hear is the rushing of water under the bow and the sound of wind in the sails. You'll see mysterious islands and miles of beautiful coastline by day and the moon and stars by night, with nothing between you and the ocean but the frail hull of the boat.

What do you do for five days at sea? Well, there's the delicious cuisine based on fresh seafood. There's the sun and the sound of rushing water and wind in the sails. There's deep sea fishing, swimming and snorkeling off pristine beaches, and island hopping to see how the indigenous people live.

You can charter the whole boat for a group or you can join with strangers. There will certainly be time to get to know everyone on board during the trip. Captains promise fresh Caribbean cuisine during the voyage. Each captain runs his own trips, but your travel agency can make sure that the one you sail with has a good safety record and a lot of satisfied customers. It's hard to this kind of checking on your own.

If you are almost persuaded that this sort of small group vacation is for you, go online and look at tour company sites and the official sites of the two countries. The pictures of the scenery and the descriptions of sights to see and adventures to experience are very enticing. You can visit ruins of lost civilizations and walk down streets dating from the colonial period, or enjoy the nightlife of modern downtown areas. You can ride a zip line over the jungle canopy, bird watch without ceasing, and visit four and five star resorts.

Colombia to Panama sailing vacations offer a way to see what resorts don't show you. Check out the moderate cost of five days at sea and read reviews of others who have gone before you in this tropical adventure. You might just find that the idea of living close to nature's wonders, having a lot of leisure time, and experiencing things most tourists never see is attractive.
