San Blas Charter Questions
How much does a San Blas sailing charter cost?
San Blas sailing charters with AMPA Tours start from $250 per person per night at 2 guests for monohulls, $450 for catamarans, and $725 for luxury catamarans with A/C, all-inclusive, with lower per-person rates for groups of 3 or more.

What is included in a San Blas charter?
AMPA Tours charters are all-inclusive on board: crew (a captain and a cook on every catamaran; on some sailboats the captain also cooks), all meals and drinks, snorkeling gear, Starlink satellite WiFi on most boats, lobster and fresh seafood in season, and island landings. Transport from Panama City and the $22 Guna Yala entry tax are separate.
What size catamarans are available for charter?
The AMPA Tours fleet has more than 20 catamarans and sailboats from 35 to 62 feet, including the Lagoon 42, Lagoon 57, Leopard 50, and the luxury Sunreef 62 and Ipanema 58. Depending on the vessel, boats host from 4 up to 12 guests in private cabins.
Do I need sailing experience for a charter?
No sailing experience is required. Every AMPA Tours charter comes with a professional, licensed captain who handles navigation through the San Blas archipelago. You simply relax, swim, snorkel, and enjoy the islands.
What is the best time of year for San Blas sailing?
December to April is the dry season, with calm seas, clear skies, and steady trade winds. February and March are the busiest months. The rainy season (May to November) offers lower prices and more availability. A high season surcharge applies over New Year, Carnival week, and Holy Week.
How do I get to the charter from Panama City?
Transport from Panama City is arranged separately: a 4x4 jeep transfer (2.5 to 3 hours, $140 per person round trip) or a short charter flight from Albrook Airport. AMPA Tours coordinates all logistics with your booking.
