About this episode
Bocas del Toro is a province in northeast Panama comprising an archipelago of 9 islands. If you dream of living on an affordable Caribbean island and love boating, this may be the place for you. Doug Marcy and Anne-Michelle Wand were both immediately enamored with the islands and settled there. Traveling everywhere by boat and working to restore the coral in the ocean has given them an idyllic island life. Check out what it is like to live in Bocas Del Toro, on Episode 124 of Retire There with Gil & Gene.
Doug Marcy is the founder of the Caribbean Coral Restoration Center. If you would like to donate to the Caribbean Coral Restoration Center, please go to their GoFundMe page.
Anne-Michelle Wand wrote a Travel Awaits article about why she and Doug chose to settle in Bocas del Toro.
