Chichime Island

Without a doubt, this island is considered the best island in San Blas. Chichime is perfect for singles, couples or families that want to stay away from crowded beaches. The island has 4 cabins in total, that are very well decorated and kept very clean. Chichime has a nice lagoon and a beach bigger than all the other islands.
