Pedasi: Panama's Most Charming Town On The Azuero Peninsula
Get our complete report on Pedasí in this month's issue of the Overseas Retirement Letter:
In a golden corner of Panama’s Azuero Peninsula sits the town of Pedasí. It’s a town with a village atmosphere—large enough to feel like you can live there, yet small enough to make you feel like an active stakeholder in a thriving community.
So what exactly is the Azuero Peninsula?
The Azuero Peninsula constitutes Panama’s southernmost landmass. Jutting into the Pacific, Azuero is an excellent staging post for forays into the ocean and is home to some of Panama’s finest coastline, with idyllic islands lying offshore surrounded by a deep blue and turquoise ocean abundant with rare mammals and marine life
This region is known as the heart of Spanish colonial culture, long famous for religious festivals dating back to the earliest settlement of the area by the Spanish. Some 500 religious celebrations are held each year in Azuero, clearly some kind of miracle as there are only 365 days in the year.
The population of Pedasí numbers only about 2,000, but Los Santos boasts around 85,000 people. Pedasí caters day-to-day needs with small- and medium-sized supermarkets, two bakeries, and several restaurants, bed and breakfasts, and hotels. The region is primarily agricultural, and it is possible to find high-quality fresh produce. In addition, Pedasí has a public health clinic, two banks, a public library, and a small shop selling surf and beach wear.
The capital of the province is Las Tablas, located about 30 minutes north of Pedasí. Chitré is located a little less than an hour from Pedasí and has all the amenities of a medium-sized city with several good hotels. A wide range of restaurants serving both local and quality international food as well as most major fast food outlets are represented. All of Panama’s largest supermarkets have large outlets in the city, and it is here that you can easily and economically stock up on staples.
Pedasí is often considered one of Panama’s most authentic and charming small towns. Located right at the southeast corner of the peninsula, Pedasí is within a few minutes of numerous white-sand beaches and rocky headlands, with numerous sandy coves and hidden coastal delights nearby. Situated on a flat coastal plain in the shadow of the Azuero hills, entering Pedasí is like taking a step back in time. The local population is friendly and hospitable, going out of their way to be helpful. They love baseball, which is taken extremely seriously and competitively at a national level with huge rivalry amongst the three provinces of Azuero.
Pedasí has seen a rise in tourism to the area in recent years due to a gradual discovery of what the town has to offer. Namely, world-class watersports, sport fishing, a number of world-famous surf breaks, and diving and snorkeling in little disturbed and well-preserved coral reefs.

Panama City's Best Neighborhoods
With a skyline that wouldn’t look out of place in Miami or Dubai, Panama City is the epitome of a modern metropolis. Impressive towers overlooking the Panama Bay are home to many well-heeled locals, as well as an ever-growing community of expats.
But this city has plenty of diverse neighborhoods to explore, each with its own flavor and appeal. Though those fancy ocean-view condos offer excellent value, you could save 25% or more by living a few streets away from the waterfront.
