Not just in Panama Sailing: Sailing in the San Blas!
Off the coast of Panama is the San Blas archipelago. These pearls in the Caribbean are among the most unique islands in the world because of their purity. They are blessed with a wonderful climate, tropical with cooling sea breezes.
Of the more than 350 islands are inhabited by the Kuna forty
Indians, the rest are uninhabited. Around the islands you can snorkel all the beautiful coral explore. You will find a paradise with pearly white sand beaches, swaying palm trees and azure waters. Because of its sheltered location just behind the reef is a great sailing paradise. Would you like the rough ocean sailing experience possible too.
While exploring the uninhabited islands make you feel a true explorer. We ask permission to visit the village chief and the Indians inhabited the islands and take note of their traditions, norms and values .
Sailing in the San Blas, home of the Kuna Indian
Kuna's are organized hierarchically, each village has three Sailas (chiefs) and are the highest in rank in the village. Sailas are not only leaders but also the guardians of culture, spirituality. They have the medical and historical knowledge of their people. They have the Panamanian government received a high degree of autonomy.
The coconut is a very important element in the economy of the Kuna's. On every square inch grow a coconut tree full of coconuts. Until a few years ago, the official currency of the coconut the Kuna. Each coconut palm has an owner, so never grab a coconut, even though they lie on the floor. This gives you the wrath of Kuna on your neck.
Kuna mola making women's, pieces of cloth of different colors that are sewn together. Very colorful. Each mola is unique, the graphics on the mola are usually abstract. In traditional villages, see the Kuna women dressed in beautiful mola, and with many decorations around arms and legs. The men with their trunks hollowed out to sea to fish.
