Punta Chame Beach - Panama

Punta Chame is great for windkiting certain months of the year. Miles of lovely white sand with uncrowded beaches to play on. Be aware however that the road to Punta Chame was not in that great of shape ( February 2006). Other than the one hotel where we had an excellent lunch there are very few business entities. This is an area where fishing is still the main industry and population is minimal. The road leading into Punta Chame is the main detriment to expansion, but there is talk of an update and with that the area will expand as it is the closest good beach to Panama City. Another point to consider is that this is the point where one departs to explore "John Wayne`s Island" which can be seen from a small motel & restaurant.

John`s Recollections - 2009

With several friends we met at our lodging in Panama City and then set out for an adventure that still remains a highlight. The beach at Punta Chame did not appear that far away but as we travelled off of the Expressway the road continued to get worse. In fact it was almost impassable from my standards. Continuing on ( with prodding from others ) we finally reached our destination and were rewarded by being able to have a cool drink in a bar like no other and a great lunch at an ocean beach restaurant. The beach was absolutely fabulous and we did see some wind surfing.
