Driving Advice
If you're from the US, your driver's license is good in Panama for 3 months. Driving, while more aggressive, is very similar to the US. We highly recommend renting a car through Panama Car Rentals in Coronado.

Local brands are cheaper
When shopping at the grocery store, we recommend Super-99 or Matchetazo in Coronado. Remember that often the local brands are much cheaper. For example, Honey Nut Cheerios are $7.00 a box but Cheerios Miel (honey) are $3.50.
Also, Matchetazo offers deliver to the house for a small fee off of their website.
