Where to sleep in Bocas del Toro — the neighborhoods and the picks, siesta side to fiesta side.
Bocas Town (Colón) — the hub
Painted Caribbean clapboard over the water — bars, boats, everything.
Bastimentos — the wilder island
No cars, Red Frog beach and Old Bank's creole lanes.
Carenero — the quiet neighbor
A two-minute boat from town, docks-and-hammocks calm.
Overwater note
Bocas does budget overwater cabins — the backpacker's Bora Bora.
