Exotic tropical rainforests, cool mountain refuges, Caribbean style beaches and a hip capital city all await you in Panama, a Central American destination that is growing quickly in popularity. In fact, it has been named one of the best countries in the world to move to after you retire; many folks visit Panama on vacation, then determine that it's where they'd like to spend their golden years! Visitors find the locals friendly and accommodating: English is spoken nearly everywhere and the U.S. dollar is the currency used throughout Panama.

Of course, one of the most popular sightseeing visits in Panama is the Panama Canal, an engineering feat that joins two oceans. Tour the countryside along the canal, or take a boat trip, and enjoy the scenic landscapes while admiring the mechanics of the canal's lock system. While this man made attraction is indeed phenomenal, Panama's natural wonders are stunning as well. Tour lush rainforests, relax on palm fringed beaches and snorkel off the coast to view colorful marine life.
