My wife and I plan a day trip to the Blue Coconut on every trip! We go to Bocas at least twice a year. the Blue Coconut, like many places in Bocas, is laid back, has good food, and drinks'o'plenty! The humidity getting to you? Take a dip in the water while sipping a cool beverage! Hungry? The meals are excellent and presented well. If you are looking for fresh lobster, pull one from the water and have it cooked!We always meet the nicest people here and have a blast! The food is good, the staff is very friendly, and drinks are great!Do yourself a favor and get to the Blue Coconut. A short water taxi ride from town!

One of the only true beach front spots where you can lay on a day bed and spend the whole day beach front.Full menu of food and drinks, so you can lay in the sun all day and not go hungry (or thirsty!). I probably wouldnât trek from town just to have lunch out here but make an afternoon out of it to really enjoy it Food is good (not great - but good). Service is excellent. Ambiance is great. If youâre surfing at Paunch (or your partner is...) then this is a great spot to stop for after surf food and drinks.

Unbelievable, maybe one of the best meals of entire trip. We ended up at this little restaurant because our original choice had disappeared. Delicious, Caribbean and innovative with a Panamanian Indigenous chef/innovator. I had: Chicken breast wrapped in bacon and flaky pastry, covered in a smoked honey gorgonzola sauce. Hubby: grilled filet mignon served on a lava rock with herbs and sauce.

This restaurant is definitely worth a visit while in Bocas.Fresh and delicious seafood on the menu. It was hard to pick, so we ate a lot and were not disappointed by anything we ate. Or drank for that matter, the wine was great and the margarita was tasty! The restaurant has a great view, so worth getting there before sunset, even if just for a drink out on the wharf. Even on a cloudy day it was great.They had live music too which was a bonus we werenât expecting.

We can not say enough good things about this place. excellent imaginative cocktails. The food was creative and original, not your typical tourist so-so food. we wish this place was in our home town because it would be one of our go to places. the gnocci with coconut ginger sauce was amazing! As were the ribs. And all three desserts, but especially the donuts. The other great things about this place is the people who run it Michell and Shaun who were the most friendly and helpful people to us on the island during our week stay. Don't miss this place if you go to Bastimentos. Oh and the yoga classes were really good too!

We visited Buena Vista twice while in Bocas for a dive vacation. I really enjoyed the curry dish and my daughter enjoyed the burger options. Great place and good service even in a large group. Our friend is vegetarian and he had a dish delivered with chicken in it. The staff was so amazing at handling the situation and even gave him a free drink. Really nice place with plenty of inexpensive or more elaborate options.
