COLOMBIA/PANAMA

The Region of Guna Yala (that means region of the Guna mountain) known as San Blas, consists of an indigenous province located northwest of Panama. It has more than 365 islands, with 49 aldeas among them. This region is home to the Guna population, whom through their culture and traditions, have been in charge of protecting natural riches of the area.

The coral islands, with their white sand beaches, are surrounded by crystalline waters whose tonalities of blues, greens and turquoises make them paradises of unsurpassed beauty. This archipelago is delimited by the tropical forests of 320,000 hectares, which grow in the continental region of the Darién, which has also been called the Mesoamerican Biological Corridor.
