About this route
Pedasí is the laid-back gateway town of the Azuero Peninsula: the starting point for boat trips to Isla Iguana and a short drive from the surf at Playa Venao. This shuttle takes you there straight from Santa Catalina — Pacific coast to Pacific coast, without the bus changes in Santiago, Chitré and Las Tablas.
