Getting there

Bus

To reach Isla Pelican from the center of Panama City, start by heading to the Albrook Bus Terminal. You can take a taxi or use local buses to get there. Once at Albrook, look for buses heading to 'Panamá Oeste' or specifically to 'La Chorrera'. These buses will often have signs indicating their destination. The journey will take approximately 30-45 minutes. Get off at the terminal in La Chorrera. From La Chorrera, you may need to take a taxi or a local bus towards the nearest port (Puerto de La Chorrera) that offers boat services to Isla Pelican. Confirm with the boat operator the schedule and availability, as they may vary.

Taxi

If you prefer a more direct route, you can take a taxi from your location in Panama City directly to Puerto de La Chorrera. Make sure to negotiate the fare before starting your journey, as taxis in Panama often do not use a meter. The ride will take approximately 30-40 minutes, depending on traffic. Upon arriving at the port, inquire about boat schedules to Isla Pelican.

Uber

Another option is to use the Uber app for a more convenient ride. Enter 'Puerto de La Chorrera' as your destination. The estimated travel time is similar to that of a taxi, around 30-40 minutes. Once you arrive at the port, look for boats heading to Isla Pelican and check their schedule.
