YouTube Video Description

Greetings fellow travelers join us for the full Colón cruise port, the gateway to the Panama Canal on the Caribbean side and one of the more popular stops on western Caribbean cruises. Western Caribbean cruises usually visit a combination of Jamaica, Grand Cayman and Cozumel. Many ships will go to one or more ports of call on the Central American coast. Roatan, Belize City, Costa Rica and Panama’s Colón lead the list. Cruise visitors usually arrive at Colón 2000 or Pier 6 of Cristóbal port on the south side of Limon Bay. The location on the bay is important to know for the sake of seeing as much as possible in the shortest amount of time. Colón is the provincial capital, and the province has Central America’s largest port system. Like other Central American countries with a Caribbean coast, Panama offers more in the way of ecotourism, history, culture and education than just plain beaches. In fact, Colón is not the place to go for beaches. So plan excursions accordingly. Thanks for watching, liking, sharing and commenting on our videos. We appreciate it and as always we will see all our loyal subscribers and fellow travelers soon on the next tour and review. #colonpanama #mscdivina
