Come relax on one of the most beautiful beaches in the world on our secluded section of beach in Manuel Antonio where the scarlet macaws fly over head and monkeys leap from the trees. Conveniently located along the main stretch of beach, but tucked away enough to offer a little privacy from the busyness of the main section of beach further down. Please keep a couple of things in mind: Beach Vendors: Our beautiful setting is a public beach, which means you'll encounter various independent vendors. While we focus on providing top-notch water activities, we cannot regulate the vendors' presence or their offerings. Dining Recommendations: We often point guests to a convenient local spot for food and drinks. This is purely a recommendation for your comfort. Please be aware that Dante's Water Sports is not connected to the restaurant's ownership or pricing. To help you manage your budget, we strongly encourage you to review the menu and confirm all prices before placing your order.

Navigate the waters of Lake Gatun, an essential part of the Panama Canal, as enormous ships pass in the distance and the tropical jungle pushes through the islands that emerged after the lake's creation. In Monkey Island we will look for three species of primates: white-faced capuchin monkeys, Geoffroy's tamarins, and howler monkeys, whose powerful calls are often heard through the forest. During the tour we will also be able to find tropical birds, iguanas, crocodiles, and other animals in their natural habitat. But this experience goes far beyond observing monkeys. Your bilingual local guide will help you interpret the landscape and discover how the construction of the Canal transformed ancient valleys of the Chagres River into an extraordinary ecosystem of islands surrounded by the waters of Lake Gatun. Our small groups allow for a more personal, quiet, and close to nature experience. Nature, history, and engineering meet in one place: the Panama Canal.
