What is the climate like in Boquete?
Because of the elevation, daytime temperatures rarely dip below 70, or climb above 80. Boquete is located at the base of the tallest peak in Panama, an extinct volcano called Baru. The surrounding mountains are covered with coffee, bananas, mangos, and palms. A river called the Caldera rushes through the middle of town and out to the Pacific Ocean, 45 kilometers away. From the upper rim of the valley you can see both the ocean and the Costa Rican border.
