YouTube Video Description↓

From a Windstar cruise port stop on Bocas del Toro, I joined a powerboat excursion run by Nayo Bocas Tours. The tour was billed as an trip to Starfish Beach and Bird Island; however, the destination for the bird watching portion was changed to another location--a channel on the north side of the island that was a haven for birds. Our guide was excellent and very knowledgeable. It was a beautiful day on placid waters. Starfish Beach is gorgeous with an abundance of starfish in the shallow waters. It was a picture-perfect day and very enjoyable. @seniorsolotravel Facebook Travel Forum: https://www.facebook.com/groups/443309331791413 Senior Solo Travel Website: https://www.seniorsolotravel.net/ Videos from this trip: Barbados: https://youtu.be/omMmLk4Kghg Tobago: https://youtu.be/QN2AGSK6opY Bequia: https://youtu.be/iJLmq0PMFh0 Saint Lucia: https://youtu.be/yUCO6t21B1Y Grenada: https://youtu.be/RFuje1KHFK8 Curacao: https://youtu.be/IGiY4W52icY Aruba: https://youtu.be/i__6hjSg3ZY Cartagena, Columbia: https://youtu.be/hGH5_vuOxlI Bocas Del Toro: https://youtu.be/mwKEzqC3VI8 San Blas Islands/Isla Aroma: https://youtu.be/EbEihaYr2qM Panama Canal: https://youtu.be/iHHODpPvJYs Windstar Cruise Experience: https://youtu.be/D-fYv91q9gc Casco Viejo Panama City: https://youtu.be/wwg4aKeC1-Q Things to do in Panama City: https://youtu.be/F07S1jx2EuY Please subscribe for more travel videos!
