If you grew up dreaming of being like Indiana Jones or Lara Croft—running through abandoned temples or exploring dark, mysterious caves—then we’ve found the perfect adventure for you!

Meet the Bayano Caves, a natural wonder formed thousands of years ago by a subterranean river. This hidden gem is ideal for thrill-seekers and nature lovers looking to experience Panama’s wild side through unique outdoor adventures.

The caves are located near Lake Bayano, an artificial lake that shares its name. Surprisingly, they’re not too far from Casco Viejo. To get there, you can drive for about an hour and a half, witnessing the transformation from Panama City’s modern skyline to the lush, untamed jungle. Alternatively, many tours include transportation from Panama City straight to the caves.

Very important tip: Be sure to book a guided tour—especially when you’re inside the caves. The jungle can be tricky to navigate, even for locals, and experienced guides ensure both your safety and a more enriching experience.

Once you arrive, the adventure truly begins. You’ll not only explore the dramatic rock formations and winding caverns of the caves, but you may also spot howler monkeys, capuchin monkeys, and other incredible wildlife along the way.

Whether you’re an adventurer at heart or just looking for something out of the ordinary, don’t miss the chance to explore the Bayano Caves. Just look them up and start planning your next unforgettable journey!
