| ESSENCE OF THE AREA |
| This is a vacation that will take you to another cultural world. Owned and run by the Kuna people, these green-forested islands surrounded by clear water and reefs are incredibly beautiful. There are Kuna Villages on about 40 of the 350 San Blas Islands. This is cross-cultural adventure travel at its best. The Kunas are proud of their culture and happy to share it but please be respectful of their customs.
