Operating since 1914 and considered one of the wonders of the world, this fifty-mile waterway transports ships by raising them from sea level to more than 85 feet via a series of gravity-powered locks.
Reviewed By royv647 - Traralgon, Australia
We went through the Panama Canal on the Norwegian Bliss and it was a great experience, marvellous to see this engineering marvel and learn more about it’s history. The early history is soo sad when thousands of workers died from Scarlet Fever when the French tried to build it many years ago but gave the idea away. It is a very slow process and takes all day to get through, once through the first lock the others are all the same so it may become boring for many. It is one of the worlds marvels so do it if you can but don’t expect too much excitement
5. Amador Causeway (Calzada de Amador)
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 4,130 reviews
Located at the southern entrance of the Panama Canal and stretching nearly three kilometers into the Pacific Ocean, this popular causeway features many tourist-related venues and activities including hotels, restaurants, and jogging and biking trails.

A must see when visiting Panama. The Amador is a great walk/bike or drive with amazing views of Panama City and ocean. Multiple restaurants, shops and breath taking vistas are all within reach and a treat for the senses. Rent a bike and cruise the Causeway, grab an ice cream cone and watch the ships sail by. What could be better?
6. Avenida Balboa

We rode on Avenida Balboa several times on our Panama vacation. We took a guided tour of of the Panama Canal, as well as two days on the hop on, hop off bus tour, and Avenida Balboa was an important part of the experience. There are numerous places to take photos of the city skyline, as well as many interesting buildings in the Casco Viejo section and the downtown part of the city. We passed several famous statues along the way that we also photographed.
7. Gatun Locks

We crossed the Gatun Locks on a cruise ship. Since there are 3 locks and the operations last for hours, you get plenty of time to experience all the maneuvers needed to bring the ships from the Atlantic Ocean up to Lake Gatun

Wow!! View at the top was absolutely stunning. The trail is actually a loop, but we hiked out the way we came up. Beware that locals hang out around the entrance to the hike and ask you to pay them a few bucks to "look out after your car."
9. Playa Bluff

Reviewed By DonnyNap - Salisbury Mills, United States
We stayed at a local resort right on the beach for a few days and I have to say that Playa Bluff is a beautiful beach with great sand, awesome waves and cool breezes. Miles of soft sand make for some great walks along the picture perfect postcard backdrop. Highly recommended!!!
