Pedasi

This small coastal fishing village nestled on green rolling hills was not long ago a hidden treasure among sport fishermen and surfers. Recently Pedasí has become a rapidly growing hot spot for tourists and investors from all over the world.

When you come to Pedasi, impeccably paved highways slink through endless green fields and wind around beautiful cliffs where you can see tide pools, beaches and miles of pristine Pacific ocean shoreline. There are fantastic beaches for swimming, surfing and fishing. Nicknamed the Tuna Coast for its abundant Yellowfin Tuna, the Azuero Peninsula has World Class fishing year round.

In town you will find quiet streets with colonial style homes and manicured lawns, as well as supermarkets, banks, gas stations, hotels, several good restaurants, and a medical center with English speaking doctors.

This quiet seaside town already has some of the best roads and infrastructure in Panama, credited to former Panamanian President and Pedasi native Mireya Moscoso. Today´s President, Ricardo Martinelli, also has large land ownership in the area.
