Went with my sister to Playa Venao, Panama. Felt extremely safe and welcomed by all of the locals! I stayed at Beachbreak Surf Camp which I loved! Very affordable and comfortable, and cute. I did the all inclusive package which included daily surfing, all meals, and airport transfer and came out to around a little over $1,000 for 5 nights. I also brought $500 for spending on alcoholic drinks, tips for meals, meals outside of my included hotel meals, and shopping. My sister brought the same amount and ended up not spending less than I did, I spent almost all of it but I did buy several souvenirs and we also like tipping well for the great service. Overall I loved it, it’s a laid back surf town, most tourists there were on the younger side of adulthood, and we by far not the only solo women travelers which was awesome!

I went alone in May and had a wonderful time. I was in Bocas and it was beautiful there. I stayed at Skully's. In Panama City, I stayed in Casco Viejo, a wonderful district. I walked there alone. There were a lot of police guards, so I felt safe.

I loved Panama. The city is beautiful, and the people are amazing. I also visited Bocas Del Toro and I really liked it there too. I stayed at Selina's hostel in Panama and at Skully's Skullys hostel in Bocas del Toro. I definitely recommend seeing the canal.
