By Jaclyn Hurley


If you need to experience a different level of thrill probably you are in for a boat adventure. If your hungry spirit craves for the sun, the beach, and the shore you must take it to the tropical regions. You will find treasure and pleasure as you take the route that challenged many excursionist to their limits.

Speaking of boat adventure, we like you to try going from Panama to Colombia by boat. It seems impossible to ride a plane to these countries though because the fastest way you can go there is through a Catamaran, the native boat to these tropical countries. If you think you are ready, here are some of the things that you can expect to see along the route.

You might be passing by the majestic San Blas islands miles from Panama. The island is a paradise for beach lovers as it is surrounded by clear waters and tropical coconuts. You might also get in touch with the native Yula and could be eating their delicious lobster recipes. Aside from tropical trees, you can also lie under a noni tree and recharge your energy so you can enjoy the following adventures to come.

In addition, you might lack sleep during the trip due to over snorkeling, too much swimming, and too much vomiting. The ship could be too shaky for someone who cannot handle throwing up. Sleeping quarters could be not that spacious as well. To avoid inconveniences, here are some tips you may need before the adventure.

The first tip should be about choosing a bigger and stronger vessel. It is not time to get lazy when booking for a good ship because it can cause you trouble in the future. Except if you want to experience something risky, you can choose any vessel available. For those who wanted a traditional trip to Colombia, there are two ways to get a good vessel.

Number one, find an advance accommodation then ask them about any recommendations. It is possible that the hostel keeper knows a reliable ship with a good captain. Backpackers who have gone to the route suggest that you ride a good ship which will be leaving rather in few days rather than riding in some random ship.

Number two, choose the bigger Catamaran because it can glide through the water swiftly and most likely not that shakable. They may also offer hot showers, refrigerators, and good food. Travelers say that small ships can shake throughout the travel and some captains be too adventurous for first time backpackers.

Furthermore, in a big vessel you can bring a surfboard or any sports equipment. The capacity of the vessel could even cater to a wider sleeping quarter compared to smaller ones. If you wish to be comfy and wanted to feel safe, these tips could be applicable to you.

Lastly, you should also care to look for reviews about the vessel. You may ask your friends who have been there or read a book about traveling to Colombia. Moreover, checking the age of the ship and the experience of the captain can also give you peace of mind. Experienced captains are calmer and wiser when it comes to vessel management.
