About this site
Jicarón and Jicarita are islands within Coiba National Park, off the Pacific coast of Veraguas province in Panama, in the Gulf of Chiriquí. This part of the park is remote and less visited than Coiba's main island, generally reachable only by longer boat trips from Santa Catalina or by liveaboard. The reef diving here is rated beginner in difficulty.
