Catamaran at Playa Venao

Experience the ultimate adventure at Playa Venao aboard the Amalia Catamaran, a 50-foot ORC!
Amalia is a technically advanced sailing vessel designed to offer an authentic and intimate experience at sea. At the helm is Ilya, its captain: a Spaniard based in Playa Venao, with years of experience sailing around the world. His knowledge of the ocean and his seamanship make every outing a safe, personalized, and deeply memorable adventure.
During the experience, Ilya will guide you to discover the magic surrounding Playa Venao, exploring some of the most spectacular spots on Panama's Pacific coast. The journey might take you to the fascinating Isla Iguana, a natural refuge teeming with birds, vibrant flora, and incredibly clear waters; continue to the wild coast of Santa Catalina; or sail to hidden gems like Cañas, Cambutal, and other dreamlike locations.
It is an experience to connect with nature, learn from a passionate captain and discover the authentic beauty of the Panamanian Pacific from a boat designed for exploration.
