Playa Venao

Playa Venao is a 3 mile long beach break, similar to Blacks Beach California, located 6 hours by car from Panama city. This spot catches just surfing waves from about every swell direction and is rarely under 4 feet tall and has seen waves as tall as 15 feet with a good swell. Venao is a popular spot for local surfers from Panama City and the town of Chitre, so on the weekends it sometimes gets somewhat crowded with as many as 20 surfers riding waves.

Pedasí

The town of Pedasí, on the Azuero Peninsula, is a small coastal fishing village nestled on green rolling hills that resemble the Tuscan region of Italy. The coastal roads of Pedasí wind around beautiful cliffs where you can see tide pools, beaches, and a traditional spanish hacienda every so often. The dramatic shores and the fame it has for its virgin fishing grounds have brought a select crowd of investors to this small fishing village, among then an extensive Hollywood crowd that have purchased land and houses in this city for their private enjoyment and investment.
