Boquete, Chiriqui Panama

WHY BOQUETE

Although just 8.9 degrees above the equator, at 1,200 meters (3,936 ft.), Boquete is cool, when compared to the lowlands and the city of David, 31 km. (19 miles) down the mountain.

The town of Boquete is spectacularly set in the lush, always green hills bordering both sides of the valley of the Rio Caldera.  Panama's Central Cordillera (mountain range) is renowned for its’ fresh air, clean drinkable water, comfortable temperatures (rarely more than 30C - 86F), humidity-free climate, prolific flowers and verdant vegetation.

Together, these conditions also combine to make Boquetes' coffee, grown in our rich volcanic soil, among the best in the world. Oranges and other tasty local fruits grow in abundance, and there are plenty of fresh, locally-grown, quality vegetables too.

CLIMATE

Boquete’s average annual daytime temperature is 22C - 72F. We enjoy two seasons… wet and dry, or summer, and the ‘green’ season. Summer generally covers the four months of January into May, when it is warmest and driest with virtually no rain. Summer days are accompanied by a refreshing breeze that keeps temperatures comfortable. The ‘green’ season runs May into December, with little wind. October is the wettest month.
But even during the green season, most mornings break sunny and bright. The warm rains generally arrive in the afternoon... an almost perfect balance.

BIODIVERSITY

65% of Panama remains forested. That wasn’t always the case, but now, reforestation is taken seriously. The area around Boquete features a multitude of birds and butterflies. Often sighted are toucans, quetzals, the harpy eagle (our national bird), the king vulture, and hummingbirds. Birds are most frequent around dawn. Butterfly sightings begin right outside your cabin; others around our pool.
This country is an entomologist’s delight. Because of its location between the America’s, Panama presents more varieties of insects and birds than any other place in the western hemisphere.
