Contadora Island

Contadora Island lies at the northern end of the Pearl Islands Archipelago. It is situated approximately 30 miles off the country's Pacific coast, making it a mere 15 minute flight from Panama City.

The Island has numerous private homes, and acts as a refuge for many of Panama's most wealthy families. Main roads on the island are paved and some back roads are dirt. Most streets are lighted and can be safely explored day or night.

There are eleven beaches on the island. All have white sand and protected coves. The water is turquoise and teeming with tropical fish. Panama's only nude beach is found on Contadora Island, on it's southern side. All of Panama’s beaches are public by law.
