Discover uncrowded beautiful beaches and world class waves
S
urfers are always looking for something special in each wave and there´s a lot of unique discoveries to be made in the ocean that touches Panama´s 1500 miles (2414 kilometers) of coastline. It helps those other factors, such as the country´s low crime rate, making Panama one of the safest places in Central America right now and the use of the United States dollar as legal tender makes a surf trip down there a bit more enticing. For those who know how to surf, or wish to learn, Panama is bordered by two oceans from which to choose, the Caribbean and Pacific. This allows locals and visitors to take advantage of appropriate weather and wave conditions, and some of the most popular surf spots are within an hour or two from the Panama City center. And, ponder this: Nowhere else in the entire world, can you surf good waves on the coast of two oceans in a single day! In Panama you can surf all year round; beaches are uncrowded, warm and paradisiacal. It´s just a matter of knowing what´s what and when.

AIRPORT: Panama’s international airport, Tocumen International Airport has two runways and is located on the eastern outskirts of the city where it is easily accessible. Taxi: In Panama City fares are determined by zone rather than distance. You should find taxis very easily thanks to their bright and distinctive yellow color. You can also take “colectivos” which is a form of collective transportation, less expensive. BUSES: Panama has an extensive and efficient, yet confusing to tourists, form of public transportation consisting of colorful painted buses colloquially known as diablo rojo. A diablo rojo is usually “customized” or painted with bright colors, usually depicting famous actors, politicians or singers. It is now popular all over the city for bus drivers to personally customize the interior and exterior of their diablo rojo. The Albrook Bus Terminal is located next to the Albrook Mall and near the Marcos A. Gelabert airport (more commonly called the Albrook Airport). It is a complex with brightly painted buildings and a seemingly endless number of buses and taxi cabs. This bus terminal together with the airport serves as the main transport hub for the rest of the country.

If you decide to go surfing with your friends and the break seems somewhat crowded, do not enter the water all at the same time, but go out separately. Don’t make it look like an invasion. Don’t paddle out straight to where everyone is, instead wait on the side for a while and take your time. Once in the line up, do your best to say, “Hello,” to the others, even if nobody answers back. Remember that what really counts is your intention. Wait your turn, do not paddle towards the inside for priority. If you look like you want to catch all the waves don’t be surprised if others drop in on you. Don’t be aggressive. When you paddle for a wave…catch it! If you refuse to go without a good reason, the locals won’t give you another chance. Remember a wipe out is always better than missing a virgin wave. The really good waves don’t appear every second. Respect priority! The surfer who stands up the closest to the peak has priority (even if you stand up first because you have a longboard). If you drop in, don’t just disappear, make sure to apologize with respect.

When you paddle back to the line up, be aware of the others. The ones surfing the waves have the priority over those paddling in. If you have to change direction, always paddle towards the white water, it’s the only means of leaving the way clear for those surfing. Don’t yell after catching or loosing a wave. And don’t keep calling your friends while in the water. The majority of the surfers like to concentrate while waiting for sets and the shouting can be distracting. Leave some waves for the others. Do not abuse of your priority, even more important to remember when you have the advantage of a longboard, evolutive board, bodyboard, etc. When you are about to get worked by a set and have to let go off your board, be really careful that you don’t hurt someone around you in the water. Make a ritual of picking up a few pieces of trash before or after each session. It’s a win-win situation and you will probably get somebody else thinking about doing the same thing.

RENTING A CAR 1. The roads can be unpredictable. Even when paved, you are likely to come upon potholes and damage. It is always better to rent a 4X4 vehicle. 2. By law, you are required to always wear your seatbelt. 3. No vehicles are allowed to drive on beaches. 4. Sometimes, your car may be stopped for a traffic collision, general check, circulating with no plate or speeding. You have the right to ask the policeman for his ID or badge, or even to follow him to the nearest police station in
case of a risky or doubtful problem. 5. Your car and personal documents are private property; officers can’t take them away from you. 6. In case of an accident or collision, wait until the traffic officer arrives. Don’t move the car at all, even if it’s necessary. 7. It’s better to put the car in a parking lot rather than a spot on the street. 8. Never leave valuable objects in the car, not even if you can´t see them. 9. Buy a map of the country before beginning your drive.
1. Drink extra amounts of water in tropical countries such as Panama to avoid dehydration. Choose drinks that are closed or sealed. 2. It’s always better to eat vegetables and fruits you can peel. 3. Know your blood type and bring a vaccination record. 4. Always carry a copy of your passport with you as well as the proof of your entry date into the country. But, keep the original passport, plane ticket and money in a safe place at your hotel. 5. Change your money in bank and hotels, never in the streets. 6. All the taxis are easily identifiable with ID and number on the door. Some hotels use private taxis and transfer services. Ask for the price of your ride before starting your journey. 7. The safest place to leave your car if you cannot have an eye on it is a paid parking.
8. Avoid wild camping! First because you can meet unfriendly hungry animals but also unfriendly humans. 9. If you have any problem with your car don’t get distracted by someone offering his help because another person can steal your belongings meanwhile. 10. Most of the water is drinkable but to avoid any problem it is better to buy bottles.

Inside Panama
Oficial name: República de Panamá Surface: 78,200 sq. km. (30,193 sq. mi.); slightly smaller than South Carolina Density: 34,8 hab/ km² Capital: Panamá (1.1 million, metropolitan area) Political Division: 9 provinces, 2 indian shires.
HISTORY
The first inhabitants of the country were the Amerindians. They met the conquistadores at the begging of the XVI century, when the Spaniards claimed the land as theirs. Lots of them have disappeared because of the diseases brought and the barbarian acts of the invaders. They now represent about 7 to 8% of the population. After being part of the Spanish empire for 300 years, Panama became independent in 1821. It soon joined the Great Colombia as one of its departments, already including the current Venezuela, Colombia and Ecuador. The great confederation disappeared due to intense confrontations 20

in 1830 and the isthmus will follow in the decades to come. In November 1903, the United States realized the potential of the isthmus and Panama finally became an independent country with their
support. For the anecdote, the United States of America had been hesitating between Nicaragua and Panama to construct a connection between the two oceans. Panama required negotiations but easier to construct and Nicaragua was close, did not need negotiations but definitely required a longer construction. It is thanks to a stamp, sensibly sent by the old company in bankruptcy, representing an active volcano of Nicaragua that Panama has been chosen for the project. The eruption of the Pelée mountain at the time, that destructed the whole Saint Pierre city in Martinique, has had an important impact in the final decision.
Tourism expansion:
For a long time the Colon Free Zone and the international bank center have been the main point of interest in a country. At the time, business tourism was dominating. It is only by the end of 1990 that efforts emerged to launch tourism. Old military bases have been transformed in hotel complexes and shops. At the beginning of 2000, tourism started to become more important but still far from Costa Rica. However, Panama has the same wealth and diversity as its neighbor and it is very imaginable, in a close future, for the country to become the new touristic destination of Central America.
Human Patrimonies
• 1980 Fortifications on the Caribbean coast of Panama: Portobelo - San Lorenzo • 1981 Darien National Park • 1997 Historic District of Panama and the Bolivar Hall
Panamá NATURAL PARKS
• In 1983 parts of the Talamanca Mountains were declared as “La Amistad” (Friendship) National Park in the Panamanian / Costarican border.
Other important facts:
• The Panama Canal was inaugurated in 1914, it reaches his peak altitude over sea level at Lake Gatún (25,5 m). Also there it reaches its maximum extension in surface. The width varies between 90 and 300 meters in the surface. The Mirador at Miraflores Locks offer unmatched views of the ship transits. In January 1st 2000, Panama took sovereign control of the canal zone and the Panama Canal. • There are many ruins and remains of colonial monuments found in Old Panama, because, the cathedral and other constructions were destroyed by the filibusteros of Morgan in 1671. Panama was rebuilt again west of the colonial ruins. • Several indigenous races gathered in this area, because it was an obligated pass between Mexi-
co, South America and the rest of Central America. That is why many of the tribes were nomads. • Among the sedentary groups settled before the discovery of America, the Chibchas predominated. They lived near the Pacific, specially the guaimíes, dorasques, cunas y chocoes. They spoke several dialects, and dedicated themselves to fishing, hunting and agriculture. • The actual population is the result of the fusion between natives and spaniards. Also there is the black race which came in groups at the end of the XVI century. • Panama has the lowest birth rate in Central America.
The Flag:
The Panama flag consists in a rectangle divided in four pieces, the first one, white with a blue star, the next one, red, the first down, blue, and the last one, white with a star red. The Panama flag was devised by Don Manuel Amador Torrero and was made by Doña Maria De la Ossa de Amador..
National Flower:
Flor del Espíritu Santo, Holy Spirit Flower (a variety of orchid) whose scientific name is Peristeria elata.
Himno Nacional:
Letter: Jerónimo De La Ossa Music: Santos Jorge. For many years the Panamanians sang with patriotic pride a scholastic song titled “Himno Istmeño”, the letter was by Juan Agustín Torres and the music by Mr. Santos Jorge.
Flora and Fauna
Panama has in its landscape, forests with species of great utility for the production of wood. Among the most abundant are: oak, cocobolo, cork, cedar, madroño; and others used in construction. You can also find tagua or vegetal ivory, saponaria which is used in the manufacture of soap as well as fruit trees such as mango, mamey, yam, papaya, palpa, caimito, pinneaple, guava, corozo and bread fruit. The fauna is also very diverse and numerous in Panama, it´s rich in species like: pecarí, tapir, razorback, otter, porcupine, jaguar, mountain cat, foxes, monkeys, and reptiles. In the rivers there is an abundance of caimans. Among bird species there are plenty of tucans, parrots, cranes, buzzards, royal eagles, guaraguaos hawks and falcons. In the Caribbean waters you will find turtles and crabs. In the Pacífic there is plenty of shrimps, oysters as well as a variety of fish such as tuna, bonito, saw fish, barracuda, sail fish, black and blue marlin and dolphins.

A historic year for the Panamanian surf W
ith the transfer of power occurred in July 2009, began a historic shift for the sport in Panama. With the democratic election of Ricardo Martinelli on this year, Mr. Solomon Shamah was nominated as Ministry of Tourism and was accepted unanimously by the Committee on Credentials of the National Assembly, responsible for approving or rejecting the nominees for ministers and other important positions in the Panamanian government.
visit the site, as Patrick Castagnet and Andres Bolivar (these are just two of many talents in the surf that has Panama) as well as the media who helped spread the project to attract more helpers.
Shamah is a visionary man who saw in surf a great way to give more growth to the already active Panamanian economy based on tourism, thanks to the efforts of previous ministers.
Efforts to keep Panamanian beaches clean are spread throughout its 2500 km of coastline. Many environmental organizations have contributed greatly to the efforts. Among these NGOs are MarViva, the National Association for the Conservation of Nature, PROMAR Foundation, also private enterprises has supported protecting the coasts.
The first action for the surf, was the cleanup and subsequent shutdown of a trash dumper located next to a beach, famous for its tubes, ironically called Dumpers, on Isla Colon in Bocas del Toro. The closing was done in conjunction with local government, represented by Dr. Jose Anderson, mayor of Isla Colon, also the collaboration of the community of the island and famous Panamanian surfers who regularly 22

This shutdown allowed the tourists to enjoy, in just a few days, a clean and safe sea, without any risk of disease or other ailments, as was the case before closing the dump.
Another achievement of Mr. Salomon Shamah, just a few months after the handover, was to achieve that the national airline, COPA, eliminated the charge for the carriage of surfboards at certain times of year, this to show the world that Panama is a surfer friendly nation.

In August 2009, in the neighboring country of Costa Rica, the Billabong ISA World Surfing Games were held. The Panamanian team traveled with their best athletes and achieved the 15th position, an improvement of 100% over their last World Open in 2006. This time their performance was as if they were at home.
The 8 team members were Diego Salgado, Gary Saavedra, Omar Figueroa and Carlos Diaz, in women category were Sonia Garcia and Samanta Alonso. In Longboard: Alan Barnes and Augusto Lopez. They were responsible for putting Panama for the first time higher than ever. Furthermore, the Panama team had major alternate athletes that travel with the main team.

he got into the 33rd position of 128 competitors, after a good presentation on the competition. Gary Saavedra achieved the 49th position. In women, Samantha Alonso lived up to its status of National Champion and managed to place in the 25th position of 60 women, something never achieved in the female category on a World Surfing Games by a Panamanian. In the middle of the rank, the experienced Sonia Garcia gave Panama the position 33. The current number five of Latin America stays in shape and exceeds all expectative every time she is part of a national team. In Longboard, Augusto “Pimpli” Lopez did not want to miss the opportunity to run this big event and managed to get in the position 33 of 60 competitors. And finally Alan Barnes, who for the second time in two years shared his expertise to run on a world class event, got position 41.
Alonso and the eighth was for Sonia “Pucha” Garcia.
The surf comes to mass media In October 2009, from the same hands that make Surfos Latinoamerica magazine, a new magazine it’s born and hits the market: Surfos Panama, the first free printed media completely focused on Panamanian surf. This news media is linked to digital media as www.surfeapanama.com to boost Panama surfing, giving room for the athletes to publicize their achievements. Another major effort to publicize the sport was made by the National Brewery of Panama, through the Corona beer, with the Corona Surf Camp, a weekend where journalists of all Panamanian mass media received surf lessons from surfers Gary Saavedra (13 times national champion) and Sonia “Pucha” Garcia (10 times national champion).
The good results followed in the Bolivarian Games, an Olympic competition where participating countries are those liberated from Spain by Simon Bolivar. In 2009 Panama won the 4th place in the standings. Individually, Gary Saavedra won the 5th place, Diego Salgado peaked at number 8, Chuko Diaz in the 13th and Patrick Castagnet in 15th.
Major events related to the surf continued during the beginning of 2010. The visit by world renowned Rob Machado and Tom Curren, who lives in Panama from long time ago, showed massive acceptance among the Panamanians, also the number of companies who see in surf the perfect setting to publicize their products and services and give their support athletes, has increased.

Towards the Plaza Mayor, you´ll find City Hall, the cathedral and the Bishop´s house. The cathedral of our Lady of the Assumption, constructed between 1519 and 1626, is the best preserved of all the buildings. Following the style of the time, it is cross shaped. The bell tower was located at the back and probably served a double purpose as bell tower and watch tower of the royal houses. Further north is the Convent of Santo Domingo, constructed in 1570 and its respective church,

Politics
The Republic of Panamá is a sovereign, independent state. Its government is unitary, republican, democratic and representative. Politically, Panamá is divided into nine provinces and five indigenous comarcas or territories, which in turn, are also divided into 67 districts. As of July 2010, Panama´s population was 3.28 million, 51 percent of which live in urban areas. The population of the city of Panamá, the capital of the country, is 1,325.000. Panamanians come from various national and ethnic origins: 62 percent are mestizos, 14 percent Africans, 10 percent Spaniards, 5 percent indigenous.

the Cerro Ancón. On January 21, 1673, Antonio Fernández de Córdoba y Mendoza founded the new city of Panamá. The better location was chosen as a defense against new pirate attacks. A formidable set of walls enclosed the city at the beginning of 1675. The walls had two main doors, one facing land and one facing the sea, in addition to those two it also had five side gates. The new city was apportioned lots and was intended for specific functions: religious, administrative, military, commercial and residential. From its cross –sectioned design emerged 38 blocks, 3 main streets running from east to west, 7 streets running from north to south and others that were shorter. The urban development of Panamá City was interrupted during the 18th Century due to various fires that devastated its streets. In 1737, the “big fire” destroyed 2/3 of the city, and the “small fire” of 1756 destroyed more tan 90 houses. These and other catastrophic fires help explain why so few colonial examples exist today. In 1846, the discovery of gold in California spurred the economic development of Panamá. The result was the construction of the transisthmic railway; which joined the two oceans for the first time, and the beginning of the construction of the French Canal. The city gradually changed its aspect, transforming itself into a cosmopolitan city with a 19th Century European resemblance. In 1997, UNESCO declared the Casco Antiguo of Panamá City a Patrimony of Humanity, underscoring it rich architectonic diversity from the 19th and early 20th century.
Bridge of cultures of the Whole World, Rodrigo de Bastidas, a captain that sailed with Colon in his second trip to the Americas, discovered Panamá in 1501. At the time, more than 60 indigenous tribes inhabited the region. Today the major ethnic groups in Panamá are: The Kunas in the Kuna Yala (San Blas) Islands in the Caribbean; the Emberá in the Darién Province; the Gnobe Buglé in the provinces of Chiriquí, Bocas Del Toro and Veraguas; the Teribes y Bokota Indians in Bocas Del Toro and the Wounaan in Darién. These six tribes, along with an influx of other cultures from around the world, have helped shape the diversity and depth of Panamanian history, culture and tradition.

Museums
The city of Panamá offers a variety of interesting museums, including the Museum of Colonial Religious Art, the Museum of Contemporary Art, and the Afro- Antillean Museum, the Panamanian History Museum, The Museum of Natural Sciences, the Postal Museum, the Old Panamá Museum, The National Bank House Museum, the Anthropological Museum Reina Torres de Araúz and the interoceanic Museum of the Panamá Canal.

Panamá is a natural land bridge that connects North and Central America with South America. Consequently, Panama´s tropical jungles and forests are teeming with animal and plant species from both continents. More bird species live in Panamá than in North America. In total, there are 954 indigenous bird species plus hundreds of migrating bird species. Panamá is also home to 225 mammal species, 214 reptile species and 143 amphibious species, as well as host to more than 10000 plant species, including 1200 orchid varieties, 678 fern species and 1500 varieties of trees. Panamá provides visitors with an abundance of protected areas. More than 29 percent of Panama ´s land mass is given over to 15 national parks, a dozen forest reserves and 10 wild life sanctuaries.

Darien Province
This province is located east of Panamá City on the east side of Panamá bay, and although there are a few breaks that people have surfed, it is relatively untapped territory. For the adventurer, there are a lot of waves to be explored, but don´t set out if you have no surfing experience! Best surfing conditions: February to October.
Punta Jaque
With rocks on the bottom, this point breaks, with rights, is best on a medium tide.
Jaque Beach Break
A black sand bottom beach break that has both rights and lefts. Best at medium to high tide, but can be surfed at low tide as well.
Panama Province Panama City
The historical venue that is Panama City is divided between the modern – clubs, restaurants, shopsand the old-narrow streets, cafes and great architecture, as well as the ultimate wave break: Amador Causeway, which connects three small islands to the mainland.
Isla Chepillo
This dual point break, accessible only by boat, is off an island located East of Panamá City. The right point breaks over sharp rocks and can be surfed at all tides. The other is a center peak breaking over rock, and can be surfed at medium to high tide.

Panama Bay Area
The Panama Bay area is much cleaner than the city breaks, and gets much better surf as well, and the area still has all the convenient facilities for the traveler like supermarkets, good roads, banks, ATM, surf shops and camps, hotels and other lodging. The breaks themselves are located on the Pacific Ocean, about a one- hour drive west from Panamá City, over the bridge of the Americas, and up the coast on the Pan- American Highway. They run one after the other along the highway. Best surfing conditions: February to October
Malibu
Located near the town of Gorgona, this spot has some of the best waves on the Western side of the province of Panama. With the existing sandbar, the waves are impressive tubes that break to the right, very fast and forcefully on all tides. This is not a break for the beginner! To get here, drive your 4x4 onto the beach to protect against thievery.
Playa Serena
Another spectacular tube, in Coronado Beach, a right that tends to break long after hitting a rock wall.

Playa Teta
From out of the Río Teta, this spot is located at Punta Barco, about 2 miles past Coronado. There are 3 different breaks: Frente de Teta, at the rivermouth with rights and lefts; Punta de Teta, a point break to the left of the river that breaks both ways, with good tubes at the peak and long rides; and Rinconsito further left, where you can get rides of up to 200 yards on a good swell. Under threat by construction of a dam.
Playa el Palmar
With strong waves of up to 8 feet on a consistent basis, this is one of the most respected surf spots in the western side of the province. It is, however, a good place for beginners and experts alike because there are 3 breaks here to sample: Frente Palmer, Punta Palmar and Hawaiisito.
Playa Rio Mar
This beach is located after Palmar, in the town of Río Mar. After you pass the town of San Carlos on the main highway, you will go over a few hills, and then you will see a sign to the left to enter Rio Mar on an asphalt road, which takes you to the beach. The restaurant charges $5 to park the car under the tree, in front of the beach and you have to pay the $5 for parking, or they will flatten your tires! The two spots are Frente Río Mar, a beach break

that you can ride both ways as the tide is coming in; and RĂo Mar Point, a low tide with rights and lefts.
Playa Venao
One of the most famous surf spots in the country because of the international tournaments that take place here. With impressive scenery, this beach break with rights and lefts that can reach 10 feet catches just about any swell. It does get crowded on the weekend, but during the week will be all yours.
This right and left breaking sand bottom beach break is powerful, and breaks best on small swells, and works on most tides. Located in the town of Pedasi.

Park your car on the main road, then walk down the cow pastures to the river, and follow the river out to the beach for about a 30 minute hike. Bring your shoes and prepare to step in cow dung! Also bring along a bottle of water because there is nothing at the beach. The wave has a sand bottom; and it´s a hollow tube at low tide, but go in the morning before it gets windy.
Playa Raya
Named after the big manta rays and sting rays that are seen in the water, this is another place where you have to walk through cow pastures to get to the beach. A beach point breaks with a sand bottom, with huge open tubes (some have reported up to 20-feet on big swells!) that don´t close out. Nature abounds in this locale, so be smart. Bring water, and keep an eye out for sharks!!
Playa Guanico
An hour past Venao, there are several places to surf that generate a lot of rocky bottom point breaks with rights and lefts, and a beach break with duals as well. There is a small town up there for a stay if needed.
Cambutal
In this town there is a long stretch of shore that offers great surf breaks- beach and points- that catch just about any swell, so it never gets small, yet can be huge, sometimes as big as 15-20 feet, with barrels or open faces. There are not hotels or surf camps, so bring camping gear or stay in the next town of Tonosi (about 40 minutes away by car). Some of the better known breaks are the Cambutal Beach Break, a fun right and left. Punta Negra, awesome point break; 411, a famous rock shelf bottom long right- hand point break; Dinosaurios, powerful, big rocky spot;

Horcones, uncrowded beach break good at all tides; Dos Rocas; fun, rocky point break; and the best Corto Circuito, a very powerful peak with a huge tube that peels down the point for 100 or so yards with a great wall that you can maneuver on like crazy
Santa Catalina
This is one of the most famous spots in all of Central America. Surfers from around the world come here to surf incredible waves. Santa Catalina initially began as small fishing town, and thanks to the good surf it generates, it has gradually become a thriving surfing community. Also because of it`s proximity to Coiba island, a national park with excellent scuba diving / snorkeling and wildlife preserve, Santa Catalina is the port for tours to Coiba Island.
La Barqueta
Is a beach bottom break with rights and lefts that is located right near David. Just go to the city of David, and ask where the “Feria de David�, then when you get there ask which road to take to Barqueta, then follow that road straight to the beach. They sometimes hold surf contests at Barqueta, but it is generally only good when there is no wind, so go surfing early in the morning. It breaks at all tides, but medium to high is best.

Hollow, fast, strong for super- experienced surfers on Isla Colon, this beach break works on all tides
Located on Isla Colon, this reef bottom break has a steep drop, nice tube and short ride left. The reef is sharp and entering or getting out of the water is slow going, but a local will usually tell you the quickest way. It can be crowded because everyone knows about it. It’s also located in front of what it used to be a recycling dump, hence the name.

The Colon/ Portobelo area, located on the Caribbean coast, east of Colon city has a lot of surf spots that are reachable by bus, but they are very crowded and you must take several of them to get to the beach. Taxis are also available, but to get out to the wave from Panama City can be very expensive, so it is recommended that you check with a tour operator for convenience and cost.
Playa Maria Chiquita
Located right in front of the town its name after, this beach break with lefts and right only works with big swell.
Isla Grande
Popular island getaway for Panamanians on weekends and holydays, located in front of La Guaira. It has a reef bottom break with 3 peaks: a left breaking near the rocks a center peak breaking to the left and right and the peak on the left hand side, breaking mainly to the right, but sometimes to the left. Be careful with that left, there is a shallow sharp reef area right there. If you don´t want to walk on that coral, then take a boat taxi to the break, and get them to pick you up, too.

Cuango
Named for the Indian village in front of the beach, after the towns of Palenque and Nombre de Dios, this beach break has rights and lefts, but the area is very raw and unexplored, so you will very seldom find any surfers here. To get there, you have to pass Portobelo, then before reaching la Guaira, you turn right at the fork of the road, where there is a cantina. Follow the dirt road for about 1.5 hours. Be sure to go by 4x4 because the road is awful.

Canal de Panama: The first thing that comes to mind when talking about Panama is its canal. The idea of constructing a way through the continent originated from Carlos V, the king of Spain in 1524, but the tools a the time where not sophisticated enough to launch such a project. The construction only started at the beginning of the 20th century, after 21,900 French died fighting for twenty years against the forest and diseases, not mentioning the financial problems that came along. Finally financed by the United States, it is 48miles (77km) long and created a deep change in international relations with 13,056 boats transiting annually.
