Playa Venao
Untouched by the globalization of Panama City, Playa Venao offers the tranquility of an ancient world complimented by its 21st Century capabilities.
Live, relax, indulge in a paradise where you will be in harmony with your community and nature. The tranquility is undeniable.
Surfers can take advantage of some excellent breaks, the most notable of which is in Playa Venao, just a half-hour drive west of Pedasí, and scuba divers can choose from a number of dive sites, including Isla Iguana and the Frailes Islands to the west.
In addition to the many species of marine turtles, rays, eels and tropical fish that call the tropical Pacific home, lucky divers will spot hammerhead sharks school at certain times of year, and the whales and dolphins that haunt the coastal waters with their young.
Isla Cañas, just beyond Playa Venao and less than an hour from Pedasí, is also a major nesting site for several marine turtles. The mangrove-ringed island is home to about 700 residents, and boasts a 14-kilometer long beach where pregnant females lumber up during the night to dig holes in the soft sand, laying clutches of up to one hundred eggs.
A little further afield, the Cerro Joya National Park offers hiking through pristine rainforest, with several waterfalls, monkeys and birds galore.
With so many activities, natural beauty, charm and culture, it is no surprise that Pedasí, once Panama’s best-kept secret, is about to be its best-known ambassador.
Located in one of the driest regions, the Azuero Peninsula has just two seasons, one golden and dry, the other green and lush. In the golden season you find clear blue skies and crisp offshore breezes, while the green season hosts intermittent rain and sun to bring out the lushness for which Panama is so famous.
Playa Venao will offer an exciting mixture of old-world touches with modern amenities and luxury set within an eco-friendly community. Set at the foot of rolling hills on a majestic bay, Playa Venao is a premier and unique community, being designed with every comfort you may desire while preserving the environment.
