I chose this location because it is a solid example of the Bocas community. Here you will find travelers, locals, learners, and teachers. They believe in permaculture and giving back more than you take—they’re part of the reason the streets of Bocas have adopted city-wide garbage bins for public use. For that reason, this is a CITO Cache; there's a trash bin at the corner of the street and another within the gate.
Property managers have granted permission for this cache. Be careful where you step as there is no need to step through the garden. Feel free to stop in for a quick hello.
HOURS: Monday through Saturday 8am to 6pm; Sunday 1:30- 4pm
"When Christopher Columbus visited Bocas del Toro in 1502 during his fourth and final New World voyage, he was so taken by the beautyheart of the area that he affixed his name to many sites, including Isla Colón (Columbus Island), Isla Cristóbal (Christopher Island) and Bahía de Almirante (Admiral’s Bay). During the 17th century, the archipelago became a haven for pirates. The buccaneers repaired their ships on the islands, built others with wood from their forests and fed upon the many sea turtles that nested on the beaches. The pirates are said to have buried treasure on a number of the islands, but to date none of this loot has been found (or at least reported)." (Borrowed from lonelyplanet.com)
