San Blas Panama
|
San Blas has 365 different islands, one for each day of the year. It is located in the Caribbean ocean off the coast of Panama. Many of the islands are inhabited by their indigenous Indian tribe, the Kuna (or Cuna). The Kunas have been resisting changes to their culture since the Spanish first arrived over 500 years ago. They have actually done a pretty good job of maintaining their way of life. The province of San Blas has its own government, and each island is run by a chief. When you visit the San Blas Islands you will see why they could become a popular destination. These pristine islands are picture-perfect tropical islands covered with white sand and coconut trees. |
