Five facts about the Panama Canal: (1) It’s a shortcut between the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, (2) It’s over 100 years old, (3) The construction cost over 25,000 lives, (4) It’s considered one of the Man-Made Wonders of the World, (5) Over 1 Million Vessels have transited the canal since it opened.
On this tour we offer a unique sailing experience inside the Panama Canal in the same route as the ships that cross it every day up to the huge locks that will open in front of you to continue into the Ocean Pacific.
The itinerary
We pick you up in one of the hotels downtown Panama City: we can not pick you up at any hotel in town, they have to be authorized by Panama Canal Transit company. We bring you then to the Amador dock for transit to the North or Gamboa dock for transit to the South. The direction of the sail will depend on the logistics imposed by the Canal administration and the maritime traffic of the day.
