location
Panama is located in the middle of the American continent. Through the east lies Colombia and through the west Costa Rica. It forms a natural isthmian bridge, 80 kilometers in its narrowest part, that joins the Atlantic Ocean in the north with the Pacific Ocean in the south.
climate
It is a 100% tropical with temperatures around 80-90 degrees
Fahrenheit (about 25 - 30 degrees Celsius). There are two
seasons: the dry season with a bright sun from December to
April and the rainy season from May to November. You can
also enjoy temperatures of 12 to 15 degrees Celsius in the
highlands of the Province of Chiriqui close to the border with
Costa Rica as well as in the Valley of Anton and Cerro Azul at
one hour and a half and 40 minutes from downtown Panama
City respectively.
Panama's location south of the hurricane track proves to prevent these tropical storms from appearing within it's borders.
