Bite-sized trip
  • Itinerary:
    Pedasi
  • Duration:
    3 days / 2 nights (flexible)
  • Price:
    From £ 165.- per person (excluding flights)
Laid-back Pedasi is a gem of a town tucked away on Panama’s Pacific Coast. It’s a place where time seems to slow to a sleepy pace with local folks rocking away on colonial porches and tiny cafes tempt you in for a lazy drink. Situated on the beautiful Azuero coastline and backed by rolling hills, it’s the perfect place to hop on your bike and explore the area at your own pace.

Day 1 – Arrival in Pedasi

As you near Pedasi you’ll see the Azuero coastline gradually appear as you descend the hills that mark the outskirts of the region. In the centre of town is a radiant white church, the central park and plenty of cafes and restaurants where you can grab a bite to eat or sit outside with an ice cold beer. Your little B&B is about 1.5 miles from the town centre, but you can see the Pacific Ocean from the terrace.

Day 2 – Bike hire

We’ll arrange a bike for the day with some route tips so that you can explore the area under your own steam. Pedasi is surrounded by rolling hills and unspoiled beaches – what better way to explore them than peddle power? Pack your swimming costume and a bite to eat and you can explore some of the beaches, take a dip in the ocean and enjoy a picnic lunch amongst the swaying palm trees.

Day 3 – Departure

Enjoy your final breakfast on the terrace with views across the ocean then it’s time to pack up your things ready for your onward journey. If you have time, perhaps take one last walk along the beach or travel into town for a final walk through the quaint streets. We recommend stopping by the ice cream shop in the central square before you depart. The ice creams here are superb!
