But as usual, with Bocas del Toro we found an amazing place yet again! Here are some more Bocas vibes for you (and please reply with more photos if you were there). 🧵 https://s3.kosmos.social/media_attachments/files/113/985/869/754/130/507/original/aa38666cba4571a7.jpg https://s3.kosmos.social/media_attachments/files/113/985/872/856/213/927/original/0b9803dae76c405b.jpg https://s3.kosmos.social/media_attachments/files/113/985/874/686/727/816/original/a346d332624c3f2b.jpg https://s3.kosmos.social/media_attachments/files/113/985/877/133/738/289/original/8b0d8f77c6988f2f.jpg npub1pcz5t5chmv3kctpfzfdauwvt3nuszfcft867hp3azavu2hwav9ksy70utg Hacker Beach Bluff Beach is amazing! 4km of pristine beauty. https://s3.kosmos.social/media_attachments/files/113/829/963/903/713/983/original/0281b7bada03b2d2.jpg npub1pcz5t5chmv3kctpfzfdauwvt3nuszfcft867hp3azavu2hwav9ksy70utg Hacker Beach Bocas vibes: https://s3.kosmos.social/media_attachments/files/113/828/645/086/852/681/original/5aa9bf1dd37390a0.jpg https://s3.kosmos.social/media_attachments/files/113/828/646/826/453/148/original/d9fa0550f1e1adb9.jpg https://s3.kosmos.social/media_attachments/files/113/828/649/703/837/366/original/6a1d5b44d666d87e.jpg https://s3.kosmos.social/media_attachments/files/113/828/651/948/332/623/original/b04bcefe093159c2.jpg npub1pcz5t5chmv3kctpfzfdauwvt3nuszfcft867hp3azavu2hwav9ksy70utg Hacker Beach Flytrip and Sansa are the fun ones, if you like small planes. They both use Cessna Grand Caravans (12 passengers, 2 pilots). 🛩️ npub1pcz5t5chmv3kctpfzfdauwvt3nuszfcft867hp3azavu2hwav9ksy70utg Hacker Beach Since we failed to post a full announcement with more details, we're going to post some important bits here now. The first one is that in order to fly to the Bocas del Toro airport (BOC), it's usually best to book a ticket to Panama City (PTY), and then book a *separate ticket* on either Air Panama or Flytrip from the local Albrook Airport (PAC) to BOC, directly on those airlines' websites. The only other route to BOC seems to be flying with Sansa from San José in Costa Rica. npub1pcz5t5chmv3kctpfzfdauwvt3nuszfcft867hp3azavu2hwav9ksy70utg Hacker Beach People on Nostr, please be aware that our account is bridged from the fediverse, so your Nostr DMs won't arrive here.

Sorry about that! 🙏 npub1pcz5t5chmv3kctpfzfdauwvt3nuszfcft867hp3azavu2hwav9ksy70utg Hacker Beach If you're interested in scuba diving, there is a fantastic dive shop in Bocas town, with top-notch instructors and great equipment. Great for both beginner courses and advanced divers: https://bocasdiversparadise.com/bocasdivecenter/ A good opportunity for completing your first certification, or any advanced skills/certs. (And don't forget to try out https://subsurface-divelog.org ;)) npub1pcz5t5chmv3kctpfzfdauwvt3nuszfcft867hp3azavu2hwav9ksy70utg Hacker Beach Fiber Internet connections confirmed in Bocas town! The Internet in the central hub of the Bocas del Toro archipelago is considerably better than in Panama City. Also, someone is currently one the way to Panama with a mobile Starlink terminal so we can venture out to off-grid accommodations (which are the nicest around here) without losing connectivity. https://s3.kosmos.social/media_attachments/files/113/765/226/807/937/707/original/10e27529dabc2603.png npub1pcz5t5chmv3kctpfzfdauwvt3nuszfcft867hp3azavu2hwav9ksy70utg Hacker Beach More flights confirmed.
