Curu is a wildlife refuge located on the Nicoya Peninsula in Costa Rica. Part of the refuge is a private ranch, used for cattle breeding and growing crops. The rest is a nature park with a fantastic array of wildlife: more than 200 bird species, over 70 different types of mammals and reptiles and about 500 varieties of plants. Curu is also home to some stunning grey- and white-sand beaches, like the Curu Beach and Quesera Beach. Plus, there is accommodation available for those wanting to explore the refuge a little longer.

Drake Bay, Osa Peninsula, is a bay in southwestern Costa Rica. The bay is named after Sir Francis Drake and legend has it that his treasure has been hidden somewhere in the area.

Cebaco is a small island located off the Pacific Coast of Panama. The island includes only one small town that lies on Cebaco's northern coast. The local population is less than 500 people. Most of the people that live on the island are fishermen, selling their daily catch to the mainland. The uninhabited part of the island is covered in mountains, exotic trees and beautiful sandy beaches. Cebaco provides fantastic opportunities for scuba diving, snorkeling and other water sports.

Playa Muerto is a small village located in the south east of Panama, it is part of the beautiful Darien National Park. The village is home to the people of the Embera Indian tribe, who are believed to have moved to the area during the 16th century. The population has been rapidly declining though, the remoteness of the place means the locals have very few possibilities to earn money and survive in the village. This same remoteness also allowed the area to preserve its uniqueness, making it into an almost untouched paradise.

The Pearl Islands are a group of 100 or more islands, many of which are tiny and uninhabited, lying about 30 miles off the Pacific coast of Panama in the Gulf of Panama. Some of these islands are privately owned featuring hotels and offering small, quiet, clear beaches where you can sunbathe, swim and snorkel.

The Panama Canal connects the Atlantic and Pacific oceans together. Since the canals opening in 1914, this channel has become one of the most important waterways in the world, earning itself the title of one of the Seven Wonders of the Modern World. Over 815,000 ships have traveled this canal in the last 100 years. Not only does the Panama Canal allow for passage between two of most immense oceans but it also provides great access to some of the most culture rich and vibrant destinations in Panama.

The San Blas Islands are an archipelago of 365 islands in the Caribbean Sea inhabited by indigenous people who's traditions and culture still hold true and unspoiled to this day, making for a vibrant and colorful visit. Crystal-clear sea waters, white sandy beaches, the blue sky and palm trees create a truly beautiful scenery for you to enjoy.
