Family – TREDSUP

BOCAS DEL TORO AND PANAMA CITY, PANAMA

This Christmas, our family of four explored Bocas Del Toro (meaning Mouths of the Bull). It’s a surfer and backpackers’ destination in northeast Panama, on the Caribbean, two hours south of Puerto Viejo, Costa Rica.

Hiking and Family Fun in Loreto, Baja Sur

Liv and Ryan, our two teens, and I took a guided hike into Tabor Canyon. It’s about 10 km south of Loreto and is a big watershed for the Sierra de la Giganta. It is strewn with monstrous boulders and loose, crumbling volcanic rock and requires free climbing, ropes work, steady feet, a few leaps of faith and crossing water pools. The payoffs are stunning views of the mountainous desert canyon and ocean, from 1000 ft in elevation.
