Getting There
-
Boat
To reach the Archipielago de San Blas from your current location in the San Blas Islands, you can take a local boat service. Look for a nearby dock or beach where local boats (often called 'cayucos') operate. These boats typically depart regularly, especially in the morning hours. Make sure to confirm with the boat captain that you are heading to the Archipielago de San Blas specifically, as there are many islands in the area. The journey usually takes around 30 minutes to an hour, depending on the specific island you are headed to within the Archipielago.
-
Panga
Alternatively, you can hire a panga, which is a type of motorboat, for a more direct and potentially faster route. Approach local fishermen or boat operators at the beach and negotiate a price for a ride to the Archipielago de San Blas. Make sure to specify your destination clearly. This option is great if you're traveling with a group, as the cost can be shared. The trip duration can vary, but expect it to be about 20 to 40 minutes.
