With around 29% of its territory protected across fifteen nature reserves, Panama is fast becoming a must-see destination for birdwatchers and nature lovers worldwide. Panama is a transition zone between Central and South America, and it is Central America’s most “tropical” destination. This green paradise is home to a rich, colorful, varied, and photogenic bird life. Some 930 species of birds have been recorded here, more than in North America and Europe combined. The local flora is simply breathtaking, with over 10,000 species already identified in the country! The fauna is not to be outdone, and there are opportunities to observe Tamarin monkeys, sloths, and other rare mammals such as the ocelot and tapir. With its short distances, excellent infrastructure, and exceptional wildlife, this Central American destination has quickly established itself as a leading birding destination. The country’s small size and easy accessibility to sites of interest make it a popular destination, particularly for short-haul tours.
