No wonder this Caribbean island chain (

is Panama's number
one vacation spot.
It's all good
, say the locals. Pedal to the beach on a
cruiser bike, hum to improvised calypso on Isla Bastimentos, and laze over din-
ner in a thatched hut on the waterfront. Lodgings range from cheap digs to stun-
ning jungle lodges and luxury resorts. Surfers hit the breaks, but there's also
snorkeling with dazzling corals and oversized starfish or volunteering to help
nesting sea turtles.
