Bocas del Toro

Highlights:
- Chilling at the hostel Aqua Lounge playing games, sunbathing and jumping into the sea
- Watching the sunset with aperol spritzes and a live band playing
- Staying in a nice hotel room with a balcony and sea view - luxury! We watched Netflix and had snacks in bed which made a nice change
- Getting a boat to a floating bar in the ocean, having drinks with friends and swimming in the sea
- Getting a private day boat trip with friends to dolphin bay, some islands (where we saw a sloth from the boat - Bocas del Toro is where the scene of the sloth swimming in Planet Earth 2 was filmed!), a snorkeling spot where we saw some cool fish, and finally Zapatilla island which was beautiful and where we had drinks and swam in the sea
- Playing cards with new and old friends at a hostel for a few hours before going to a bar
- Visiting starfish beach, where we saw lots of... Starfish! Really cool to snorkel and see lots of them, and a beautiful beach too

Lowlights:
- Seeing dolphins and dolphin bay didn't feel very nice as there were loads of boats around and half chasing them - wouldn't have gone had we known and we asked to leave there early!

Food and drinks:
- Coconut daiquiris at Aqua Lounge
- Burgers from a shack - delicious and cheap!
- We went to a street taco van 3 times - fish tacos were so good!
- Breakfast of Arepas (stuffed corn dough tortillas) from a Colombian restaurant to give us a taste of what's to come!Read more
