History and culture
Guna Yala
What really makes a stay in these islands truly unforgettable is the possibility of getting in touch with the population, their culture and their lifestyle.
These Indians live independently according to their ancient laws and traditions. There are still many ancient traditions in this area, such as the colorful traditional dress of women - the famous mola. Decorated with fabric panels, handmade by women, it is considered one of the best crafts in Panama.
Women are highly valued in the archipelago. One of the best festivals is the Rite of the Innocents celebrating the arrival of menstruation for girls. During the festival, where the rivers of alcohol flow, the women wear precious gold jewelry. The "SAILA" are the spiritual guides and political authorities of the community. These essays, which know the ancient religion of Ibeorgun, are expressed on any subject by consulting the singers capable of remembering the stories of the ancestors.
These islands are a true refuge from the stress and influx of everyday life. It is good to remember that you are a “guest” of the Kuna and have to adapt and respect their rules.
