Chiloรฉ Island, the largest in the Chiloรฉ Archipelago off the coast of southern Chile, is a captivating blend of natural beauty and rich cultural heritage.

It's unique identity is shaped by indigenous Chono and Huilliche traditions and Spanish colonial influences, exemplified by its distinctive wooden churches (many of which are UNESCO World Heritage Sites).

The island is known for its stunning natural scenery, abundant wildlife, and welcoming communities, making it a treasured destination in Chile.

Thereโ€™s so much to explore in Bocas del Toro, especially on the water.

After a morning yoga class and breakfast, we took a boat trip to Zapatilla Cay & Isla Pajaros for some snorkeling. We were even escorted by a playful pod of dolphins!

Coralina Island House provides access to two separate boats: a Boston Whaler and 116-foot sailboat, which we took out that afternoon for a visit to Starfish Beach and sunset cruise.

Starfish Beach really lived up to its name with an endless stretch of beach dotted with starfish of all sizes. You can hop off the boat to swim with the starfish in shallow water and grab a drink at one of the rustic beach bars. Guests of the Coralina Island House can book both boats for either a shared or private excursion.

After a final morning yoga class, we headed back to the Bocas del Toro airport, stopping at a few boutique shops in town on the way.

And weโ€™re off to Bocas del Toro! Itโ€™s a short flight one-hour from the Panama City domestic airport to this Caribbean beach destination.

We checked in to the Coralina Island House, a brand-new, oceanfront, boutique hotel located on a premier surf break. The sprawling property features lush landscaping and Bali-inspired architecture, along with impressive wellness offerings and spa area that includes a yoga deck, pool, whirlpool bath, and sauna.

After checking in to our ocean view villas, we headed to the hotelโ€™s beach club at Paunch Beach for a paella lunch prepared by Chef Rodrigo. The beach club is open to the public and a perfect place to watch the surfers. Afterwards, we headed out on an afternoon ATV ride to Bluff beach.

We ended the day at the spa area, where we joined a sound bath and guided meditation at La Coralina Island Spa, which embraces ancient healing rituals from all around the world.

Be on the lookout tomorrow for more on my journey through Panama!

Today we went to the Agua Clara Locks to see the Panama Canal. Here you have panoramic views of the Canal, starting from Gatun Lake and through all three chambers of the Agua Clara Locks. We were lucky enough to see a ship pass through the locks, and at the visitor center there is a running commentary with fun facts about the canal and the locks.

These locks use gravity-fed water to raise and lower ships as they traverse between the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, allowing vessels to cross from one side of the continent to the other. Each lock chamber is massive, and it's fascinating to see them in action, especially when large ships pass through. This truly demonstrates the incredible feat of human ingenuity and construction!

In the afternoon we took a food tour, visiting a bakery in Panama Cityโ€™s vibrant Chinatown, a Mediterranean cafรฉ, and a speakeasy tucked behind a barber shop. We even got to see live music from a well-known Panamanian musician, Carlos Mendez, when popping into the Amarla boutique hotel for a drink.

There are direct flights into Panama City from most major airports in North and South America, making it an easy place to extend a layover or add-on a visit to an existing expedition.

In Panama City I stayed at the American Trade Hotel, located in the heart of Casco Viejo. The hotel is a restored 1917 building, formerly the American Trade Developing Company, and its dรฉcor and art reflect the cultural crossroads of the Americas.

On my first night I met up with a mutual friend and food journalist for dinner at a popular restaurant in Casco Viejo, Fondo Lo Que Hay, recently on the Worldโ€™s 50 Best list for Latin America. The food was delicious and atmosphere lively โ€” a must for anyone visiting Panama Cityโ€™s Old Town.

Stay tuned tomorrow to learn more about my adventure through Panama!

Galapagos Albatross Mating Dance
Galapagos Albatross Mating Dance

The Galapagos Albatross is the largest bird in the Galapagos, with a wingspan of up to 8.2 feet. They breed almost exclusively on the Galapagos Island of Espaรฑola and have been considered critically endangered since 2007, due to the vulnerability of having a single main breeding site. Albatross have a spectacular mating dance, as seen in this video, of circling and audible clacking of beaks. Couples mate for life and each breeding season the female lays a single egg on bare ground.

Friday February 24th marked the start of Carnival 2017 in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The lively celebration which includes live music, street performances, dancing, floats and costumes, attracts approximately a million people from different parts of the globe. The word Carnival originates from the Portuguese โ€˜Carne Valeโ€™, interpreted as โ€˜Farewell to meatโ€™. The phrase refers to the Carnival as being the ultimate celebration before a period of abstinence from alcohol, meat and pleasure during Lent. Brazilโ€™s Carnival began in the 1830s as a continuation of the Portuguese tradition, though, Rioโ€™s Carnival has a unique style, which is mainly attributed to the influence of African immigrant slaves, famous for their spectacular musical abilities which gave life to the first samba rhythms. #Rio #Carnival #Samba #Brazil

Our Story

How We Began The year was 2010 in Lima, Peru. Two American expats, with fresh minted MBAโ€™s and a love for travel founded SA Expeditions. Nick Stanziano and David Rottblatt were taking a chance on life. Maybe with a few computers and lots of hard work, they could turn their passion for travel into a company. Since then, that idealism and ambitions of youth have come to reality, giving way to an adventure of a lifetime shared among our thousands of clients, colleagues and partners along the way. We are specialist in South America and we see ourselves as being born on the continent. Today though, our team is global. A robust and choreographed web of destination experts, guides and local operators that are at the very top of their craft, designing and executing travel experiences that changes lives.
