Insider tips
- — Hostel/hotel Wi‑Fi can be slow or inconsistent — keep your eSIM data on for safer, more reliable access.
- — Use data for domestic flights, regional buses and shuttles, ferry timetables (e.g., to Bocas del Toro), park permits, and rideshare/taxis.
- — Dry season often runs Dec–Apr; rainy season May–Nov with heavier downpours on Caribbean coasts. Hurricanes can affect parts of the region — download offline maps for remote routes.
