Why Have You Not Heard Of This Breathtaking Beach?

Which is the most beautiful beach in the world?

It’s tough competition for the top spot, with so many incredible, popular beach destinations from Jamaica to Costa Rica or Costa Rica to Hawaii… 

The problem is, in most of these places they’re completely swamped with tourists! So when you’re actually there on one of the beaches, it’s nothing like what you saw on the postcards. 

Just imagine if you could find a beautiful white sand beach with crystal-clear waters… but with NO people! One that is as picturesque as any of the most famous beaches in the world.

Sounds like a dream, doesn’t it? But it exists!

There’s a secret beach in the Caribbean that has not yet been discovered by mainstream tourists. 

In fact, this untouched and unspoiled paradise is actually part of an ecologically-protected nature reserve. 

Read on to learn more about this hidden gem in the Caribbean, how to get there, and how you might even be able to call this place home…

Red Frog Beach

Red Frog Beach, home of the luxurious Blue Pearl Suites.Red Frog Beach is arguably the best Caribbean beach that you’ve never heard of. 

A quick Google image search of Red Frog Beach will score you plenty of photos that show everything travelers want in a tropical beach: white sands, turquoise waters, swaying palms, lush landscapes… Red Frog Beach has it all. 

One thing you won’t see in these images, though, are swarms of people. In fact, in most photos of Red Frog, you’re unlikely to find many people at all. 

Although Christopher Columbus docked his boat here in 1502, and the island later became an important fruit trading port, this little corner of paradise is still largely undiscovered by tourists. 

This “secret beach” sits on Bastimentos Island (loosely translated as “provisions” in Spanish, likely referring to the abundance of freshwater and tropical fruit) in the Bocas del Toro region of Panama. And Red Frog is a “secret beach” for good reason. While a handful of private hotels and restaurants dot the island, this destination is still relatively untouched. 

It may have something to do with the fact that you have to be “in the know” to find your way to this paradise. In order to access the beach, you’ll need to get a domestic flight from the Albrook Domestic Airport (PAC) in Panama City to Bocas. From there, it’s a short drive to Bocas Town where you can catch a water taxi for a 15-minute ride across to Red Frog Beach.

The out-of-the-way aspect of Red Frog Beach is part of what makes it so magical. Sure, getting there requires a bit of a trek, but once you’re there, it’s entirely worth it. For those looking to relax, and be at one with nature, Red Frog Beach is the ultimate utopia. 

Aside from taking in the stunning landscapes in every direction, there is also plenty to do at Red Frog Beach. You can make an appointment at the spa, go ziplining or enjoy kayaking, paddle boarding, or snorkeling. 

The island is also one of the top destinations in the Caribbean for birdwatchers with tons of natural fauna around. Thanks to much of the island’s protected status, there are as many as 500 species to spot throughout the Bastimentos region. 

There’s also the option to explore more of the island through one of the local tours. There are plenty of fun and unexpected opportunities to explore the local environment and culture, from exploring caves to a chocolate cooking class at a chocolate farm. 

Easily the most important draw of this destination, though, is the beach itself. If you’re in search of the best Caribbean beach, this might just be the winner. Here you have crystal clear water and a wide white sand beach, framed by a stunning and protected rainforest. Red Frog Beach is truly a feast for the senses. 

On any given day you’re likely to be sharing the beach with only a handful of other locals or visitors. Something that can’t be said for nearly any of the more popular Caribbean beaches.  

Real Estate at Red Frog Beach – The Incredible Blue Pearl Suites

While a small number of ecolodges and private hotels exist near Red Frog Beach, traditionally, there have been extremely limited options to invest in property on this island.

Until now, that is. 

Just recently, a new pre-construction development of luxury condos has begun on Red Frog Beach. This allows Caribbean beach enthusiasts the opportunity to buy their own slice of paradise while also investing in the environmental and cultural protection of the island. 

For a fraction of what you might pay for a condo at a more touristy Caribbean beach, you can now make Red Frog Beach a regular part of your vacation routine at the Blue Pearl Island Suites. 

Blue Pearl Suites.Located just a short stroll from the water, Blue Pearl offers an opportunity to invest in your own tropical oasis. 

And you won’t believe what you can get for the price. The properties here come with a variety of top-notch amenities, such as a beachfront pool, restaurants, spa and beach club. 

Best of all, the development team responsible for Blue Pearl Island Suites went to every length to ensure that the project is minimally intrusive with respect to the natural environment. 

With one of the largest solar power plants of any island resort in the world, residents of Blue Pearl are able to enjoy the natural surroundings while also living an eco-friendly lifestyle.

What’s more, the development project that includes the Blue Pearl was honored with a Green Globe certification. This is the first of its kind in Panama. This certification is awarded to development projects that meet an extensive list of criteria regarding sustainable management, preservation of cultural heritage, and environmental protection. 

Thanks to the care and attention that went into the development of this project, buyers can rest assured that their investment not only provides the opportunity to enjoy all that Red Frog Beach has to offer but also serves to protect the island’s ecology and stimulate the local economy. 

So if you’ve already fallen in love with the idea of Blue Pearl Island Suites, why not make your dreams a reality by checking out the amazing properties now on the market? 

Learn more about Blue Pearl Island Suites and request information about available units.

It’s never too late to close the gap between your dream life and your real one, and this is the perfect opportunity!
