weather in santa catalina panama november 2009

Update on weather conditions in santa catalina and coiba panama
we had the rainiest week in the whole year so far.its been raining for 5 days non stop,that even caused the road to sona to be closed for some time due to floods close to sona.in santa catalina there was no floods but it was not the best weather for the tourists.there was as told you on my last entry a lot of people in town for the fiestas patrias holiday but not much they could do,the rain was not letting go,we ended up having to cancel the coiba snorkeling trips we had scheduled...
soon the rainy season will start,this is the last big rains for sure,so start booking your holidays at sol y mar now,we are getting lots of bookings,almost full for christmas and new year season
