I was in Santa Catalina to surf in 1995. It’s already blown up, lol. When I was there, it was just a couple huts. Coca Cola was 19 cents (US) and beer was 14 cents per bottle. We had to save money. A bus came in every couple of days. We also paddled out to the island and walked around it. If you do that, bring shoes. It’s sharp lava rock on the other side and it tore our feet apart. Tides are very extreme too. Glad to see it’s still relatively chill.

Transportation in the city is pretty decent, you can have real time schedule of buses and train in google. Unfortunately transportation to other towns are underdeveloped. Seeing how you enjoy makes me feel that I need to do more internal tourism.

1,000 potholes going 20 MPH for the last hour. Well worth it. Take the shuttle from Selina Casco Viejo. I stayed near the ATM which was very busy. Stay in the middle of the 2 beaches…. Town is very loud all night. Internet is very spotty so credit card machines lost connection a lot.

I have been looking for some destinations in Panama I can visit besides Panama City itself, but this place looks like an easy pass for me. I guess I am more interested in having modern things to do and a nice place to sleep, at least one that doesn't have leaky floors lol. Sorry that happened to you.
