Cayos Limones
A group of small islands near Carti Port, close and inexpensive. It is one of the most popular island-hopping stops on day trips from Panama City.
Lemon Cays lie north of Carti, about 20 to 30 minutes by boat from the port. Several small islands have thatched huts, restaurants and beach bars run by Guna families, and one has a platform bar that feels like a bar on the sea. The shallow sandy seabed around the islands is good for swimming, and there are scattered patches of coral for snorkeling. Because the islands are close to shore, trips often go ahead even in windy weather. Local visitors come in larger numbers on weekends. The coordinates are an estimate for the cays.
