Why groups love it

The easiest San Blas day trip for a big group

Welcome to the San Blas Islands, a tropical paradise of hundreds of palm-fringed islets, home to the indigenous Guna Yala people. If your group is short on time but wants to experience the essence of San Blas, this day tour is the perfect fit.

Planning a trip for ten, twenty or forty people is usually a headache. Here it isn't. One person in your group talks to us on WhatsApp, and we take care of the rest: enough 4x4s for everyone, the boats, lunch, snorkel gear and a plan for the day. Perfect for family reunions, birthdays, bachelor and bachelorette trips, company outings and friends traveling together.

MariaThree nights on a catamaran

This amazing agency booked us a 3-day cruise in the San Blas Islands. They showed us all the options and boats that were available and finally closed the option that best suits us and our budget. We were on a big yacht with a nice captain who cooked us 3 meals a day and sailed with us to the most beautiful and unspoiled islands of San Blas. We saw dolphins, sharks you can swim with and starfish. Everything was just perfect. Once in a lifetime experience.

★★★★★
Or Posener3 nights on a catamaran

Great service, great experience. We've booked a 3 night charter. Ido has been really helpful and communicative and has matched us with the most perfect sailboat, with a team of 2 (captain and crew / cook). We had a magical time and one of our top highlights!

★★★★★
Jacqueline Kirsch2 nights on a sailboat

We had 2 amazing nights on the sailboat. Sea Gypsy organized everything so well and helped us with all our questions. The trip itself was an absolute adventure and we had the best food! The cook even convinced me that I actually like octopus, which I usually never do. We went snorkeling and even saw a shark! It was breathtaking and all the beautiful islands are just stunning!

★★★★★
Michelle LampinenFishing trip

It was a dream of mine to visit the beautiful San Blas islands by boat and Sea Gypsy made it happen! They recommended the perfect yacht for our group. Highlights were visiting an island inhabited by a local Guna family, enjoying a fish BBQ on the beach, and relaxing in a hammock strung between palm trees. I can't wait to go back!

★★★★★
Maïa SauteletRemote island stay

Our trip to San Blas Islands was amazing! The water was crystal clear, the food was great (be ready for lots of fresh fish!), and the people were wonderful. It was the perfect way to disconnect and escape to the tropics! Thanks, Sea Gypsy, for a wonderful adventure!

★★★★★
Orit MadarOne night on a catamaran · translated from Hebrew

An extraordinary experience. Worth the trip even though we only had one night on the catamaran (we warmly recommend staying two nights or more). Service above and beyond, a comfortable, well-equipped catamaran and above all a captain and chef who did everything so we'd experience San Blas to the max. Ido coordinated our trip and everything was perfect!
