Kuna Yala - the National Geographic Tour

We sailed from Cartagena, Colombia on February 4 after a wonderful 7 weeks there. Our first stop was the beautiful Rosario Islands which are just 24 miles away, but a whole other world! After spending a short week there we made the passage west to Panama, Central America. That passage can be a very rough one but we picked our weather well and arrived in 26 hours at the San Blas Islands of Panama! Or as the Kuna Indians call it - Kuna Yala. So far we have visited 5 islands in Kuna Yala: Isla Pinos, Mamiatupu, Tupile, Tigre, and Yandup. Every island is unique and we have loved getting to know the Kuna people and their culture. Be sure to check out the Movie section for two slides shows from the island of Mamitupu.
