One of the main attractions of Veraguas is the Coiba National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site that covers the largest island in Panama and several smaller ones. Coiba is home to more than 800 species of marine life, including dolphins, whales, sharks, turtles, rays, and coral reefs. You can explore this underwater paradise with one of the many dive centers that operate from Santa Catalina, a small fishing village that has become a popular surf and dive hub.

Santa Catalina is also known for its world-class surf breaks, especially the point break that attracts surfers from all over the world. The waves here are consistent and powerful, reaching up to 6 meters in height. The best time to surf in Santa Catalina is from April to October, when the swell is bigger and the wind is offshore. However, you can also find smaller and gentler waves in other spots around the village, such as Playa Estero, Playa Punta Brava, and Playa El Banco
