Eco Canal - Ecological Tour in the Gatun Lake

Overview

This is a lake adventure of the sounds and sights of the tropical rainforest. We will move to the public pier in the Gatun Lake after transiting in one of the picturesque internal roads used once to communicate the towns and military bases with the canal support buildings. We will board a small vessel to sail alongside the big ships transiting the Canal after going under a wooden bridge where the transithsmian railroad passes. This itself is a powerful experience of watching the canal from its guts. We will stop at Monkey Island to watch in close proximity the Topical rain forest that supports the functioning of the Panama Canal.

We slow to a cruising speed as we motor along the forested banks of the lake, also a protected area, and we will look for wildlife such as Capuchin Monkeys, 3 toed sloths, Howler Monkeys, various kinds of Toucans and other bird life.When we approach the Monkey Island the excitement will bring your adrenaline levels up in anticipation to these cute animals come to the boat waiting to be feed, by the approved natural foods, you will be handling out. 

Extremely educational and cool for the small kids that might be part of your group.  After this we will boat you to our own island called "Sounds of Silence" to enjoy along with a picnic style lunch the kayaks and boats turns on your own man powered equipment in the waters surrounding the island. 

Finally we will return to the pier and back to your Panama city hotel.
