Frequently asked questions
About Boquete
Boquete is a charming town located in the Chiriquí Highlands of Panama, known for its cool climate, lush coffee plantations, and stunning views of Barú Volcano. The official currency used in Boquete is the Panamanian Balboa, but the US Dollar is widely accepted. Visitors can explore the town's vibrant markets, hike through cloud forests, and relax in natural hot springs.
When to visit
The best time to visit Boquete is during the dry season from December to April when the weather is cooler and there is less chance of rain. However, the town's famous flowers bloom during the rainy season from May to November, making it a beautiful time to visit as well.
Getting around
One of the best ways to get around Boquete is by walking, as the town is small and easily navigable on foot. Taxis are also readily available for longer distances, and there are public buses that connect Boquete to other towns in the region. Renting a car is another option for those who want more flexibility in exploring the surrounding area.
Traveller tips
Don't forget to pack layers as the weather in Boquete can change quickly throughout the day. Be sure to try the local coffee, which is some of the best in the world. Take a guided tour to learn more about the region's flora and fauna. Be respectful of the local indigenous communities and their customs. Make sure to carry cash as some smaller establishments may not accept credit cards. Stay hydrated and wear sunscreen, as the high altitude can lead to stronger UV exposure.
