Anyone been to panama on holiday? is it a safe place to go?

Travel Tips
For lovely and quiet beaches which offer snorkeling and a whole range of water sports, inexpensive boarding and lodging, hospitable and friendly locals who can converse in fluent English/Spanish, it is hard to beat Panama. Please visit :

...Safety ? You will be a lot more safer than you could ever be in any metro, city, or town in the United States !

I like their hats.
Been there for Christmas, New Years, and all other holidays that we have in the United States along with all of their holidays. Panama is a pretty safe place to go. I have never had any problems when I have been there. I feel very safe when I am there, even walking the streets downtown.

Many of times I have even feel asleep downtown at the bus station before it moved to the mall area.
i have been there 4 x nothing ever happened to me
In general, it is safe, with some exceptions:
- Do not walk in the city of Col贸n any time of the day
- Do not walk in downtown Panama City at night
- There is a risk of yellow fever and drug-related crime in Dari茅n gap (east of Yaviza), though some people made it there as well and enjoyed it.

Otherwise, it is a marvellous place and you should have no problem getting around by very cheap local buses and staying in local hotels at about $7 a night or even less. Take a look at http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;... for other tips, I am too tired to write the same stuff again. Enjoy your trip!
Panama is the safest country in Centralamerica. It is also the most beautiful. I suggest you go see the Canal of course and the Spanish fortress(Panama la Vieja) that was destroyed by the Scottish Pirate Henry Morgan. Good luck and have fun.
I am Panamanian-American and I go visit often.
