Panama's
western city of Boquete, just 30 minutes from David, the capital
of Panama's Chiriqui Province, is nestled among the country's
most mountainous region, at 1,200 meters (3,600 ft.). Situated
between the Caldera River, which lies to the east, and Baru
Volcano to it's west, Boquete enjoys a comfortable year-round
climate ideal for active retirement living and outdoor adventure
seekers alike- birding, hiking, mountain biking, rafting, etc.
In addition, the near perfect weather and rich, fertile soil
has created an ideal setting for floral exportation and coffee
growing.

New York Times
“Panama is the most beautiful retreat in the world and almost undiscovered.”
