Coiba Island National Park: Nature adventure in World heritage wilderness

The 500 km2 mostly with rainforest covered Coiba Island is the world’s biggest uninhabited tropical island and the most important nature island of the Pacific coast of the Americas. The 2700 km2 marine park includes several nature islands in a rich marine ecosystem with mangroves, coral reefs and fish abundance next to the deep waters of the Pacific. The distance of 50 km from the mainland and the lately dissolved penal colony helped to conserve its rich nature.

Coiba offers good diving with lots of fish and encounters with big fish such as rays, mantas, white tipped reef shark ad other sharks. Frog fish are commonly seen and whale sharks can be seen mainly in the dry season. Non divers find great snorkeling around small islands and at the coral reefs where turtles can be seen fairly regurlarly.

From the boat dolphins and whales (July to October) are seen very regularly. From the beach scarlet macaws can be observed sometimes and near mangroves the American crocodile. In the rainforest can be seen the Coiba howler monkey, white faced capuchin monkey and the Coiba agouti. Boat rides take you to these nature excursions and the pristine beaches of the islands.
