I want to visit San Marcos de la Laguna, but I will have some luggage with me. Can the small launchas handle this?
Or is there a safe place where one can store luggage in Pana?

Also, what is suggested about travelling by boat in the am or pm? I hear the winds can be bad- are there larger ferry type boats to go from Pana to San Marcos de la Laguna that would be more stable?

Thanks for any advice.

I HOPE YOU HAVEN'T GOT BIG LUGGAGE AS IT COULD BE TRICKY TO HAVE THEM ON THE BOATS UNLESS YOU GO ON A BIGGER BOAT (AND PAY MORE FOR IT).

I'M NOT SURE IF I REMEMBER RIGHTLY BUT I THINK IT'S DANGEROUS FOR BOATS TO GO ON THE LAKE AT PM.

Thanks for the tips- Can I please ask how much did you have to pay for the "private launcha" with your bags? ALso, was there help for you to carry your bags?

I am asking because my partner has been ill and has lost his stamina so he will not be able to help much carrying stuff around like he usually does.

Thanks to both of you for the tips.

I am looking forward to our trip- almost 2 weeks in the country, ending in San marcos de la laguna!
