Boca Brava is an island in the Gulf of Chiriquí in the Pacific West of Panama.
From Boca Chica regular water taxis make the five-minute trip (8 km) to the south-western Playa Piedrita at Boca Brava for $3 per person ($5 at night).
Or to the pier just 2 min straight across from Boca Chica for $1, for the trail to Coco Beach.
Or to the pier just 3 min diagonal from Boca Chica for $2, for the trail to Playa Christina.
By boat, water taxi or foot.
If water taxis are not available at the dock, press the hotel to take you to the docks in their own dock.
Boca Brava is covered in untouched rain forests and home to multiple families of howler monkeys, as is the neighboring island, Isla Palenque.
Due to the estuary of the Pedegral, Boca Brava cannot boast of nice beaches. The waters become beautifully clear just past Boca Brava on Isla Palenque, however.
There are hiking trails dotting the island, though it is not large.
This largely uninhabited island has no stores of note, try Boca Chica.
Bar and restaurant can be found at Cala Mia Resort, as well as at Hotel y Restaurante Boca Brava.
