Boca Chica, Gulf of Chiriquí

Boca Chica is a town in Panama. There is only one road (paved in 2008) to this town and it ends at the estuary of the Pedregal River with the island of Boca Brava just across the water. Boca Chica is the main jumping off point for the islands in the Gulf of Chiriquí. The village is known for its sport fishing (black marlin, dorado and tuna are abundant) and many businesses in the area are geared toward that activity.

Located at 8.21667, -82.2167 (Lat. / Lng.), about 0 miles away.
