Changuinola is a town in Bocas del Toro province of Panama on the Caribbean West coast.
A low key town that you cross through to get to Bocas del Toro from Costa Rica. A nice town, but does not feel particularly safe at night. During the day it is fine. The best and cheapest clothes ever. Make sure to pack light so you can pick up some clothes from this town. It has a really interesting vibe, in a good way. Some sweet local restaurants.
By bus from Almirante (for Bocas del Toro), 30-45 min, $1.45.
By big bus from/to the border, 10-20 min, $1.
