Enjoy one of Panama City’s most fun-filled green spaces. The rock extracted when the Panama Canal was being built between 1904 to 1914 was used to build the causeway. The road extends 6 kilometers (3.7 miles) out into the Pacific Ocean, linking the mainland with the islands of Naos, Perico, and Flamenco.
From 1920 to 1980, fortifications were erected here to protect the southern entrance to the Panama Canal. It was part of a military base first called Fort Grant and later named Fort Amador.
Many of these buildings now host restaurants, shops, and clubs that both residents and tourists enjoy. You can see Panama City’s skyline and the Pacific entrance to the Canal from here as you stroll, jog, skate, bike, rent an electric scooter or just sit and enjoy the breeze. Boats to Taboga island and Las Perlas archipelago depart from this area.
You can also rent kayaks or paddleboards to row in the bay, shop for local wares at handicraft shops, or eat at some of the area’s restaurants. You can choose Arab, Italian, Japanese, and of course, traditional Panamanian cuisine. Don’t miss visiting the Punta Culebra Nature Center operated by the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute, and the Biomuseo.
To get there on public transportation, take Metro Line 1, get off at the last stop at Albrook station, walk 100 meters (yards) south towards the Metro-Albrook bus station, and catch a C850 bus. This route begins and ends at the same stop. To see this and other Panama City routes, go to https://www.mibus.com.pa/red-de-rutas/
