The Hosts:
Meet your co-captains, Mackenzie and Elison. Mackenzie, a Canadian with over three years of living experience in Guna Yala, brings a unique perspective.

Elison, a skilled Guna fisherman, is a true jack-of-all-trades. An excellent chef and handyman, he goes the extra mile to create unforgettable moments for guests from around the world.

Included Experiences:
Your booking includes approximately six hours of day sailing and island hopping. Upon arrival, Constellation generally anchors to provide you with a well-deserved rest following your journey from Panama City (approximately five hours by jeep and speedboat). For your exploration, a double kayak, stand-up paddleboard, and snorkeling gear are at your disposal. Should you wish to extend your sailing or enjoy overnight anchoring at specific islands, additional options are available at a supplementary cost.

Cuisine and Beverages:
Enjoy three modest vegetarian meals per day, thoughtfully included in your Airbnb booking. For those seeking a culinary adventure, gourmet seafood meals are available à la carte, subject to availability. Guests can also indulge in fishing aboard the vessel. Your daily package encompasses three alcoholic or non-alcoholic beverages. Extra beverages can be purchased on board, with all proceeds contributing to the Alaya Sail Project, a venture dedicated to providing social services to Guna communities.
