Isla Coiba National Park - Panama

The Coiba National Park was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 2005, a natural reserve of enormous wealth located in the Pacific Ocean, facing the Gulf of Chiriquí, in the Republic of Panama.
More than 30 islands make up this park and Coiba Island is the largest of all with an area of ​​49,300 hectares.
In 2004, the year in which the prison that had operated on this island since 1919 was closed, 80% of its forest still remained intact.
Today, one of the great challenges of the Coiba National Park is to continue working to protect and conserve the important insular, coastal and maritime ecosystems, which seek to preserve existing biodiversity, ecological and evolutionary processes.
