Tobobe (Punta Tobobe, Valiente Peninsula)
9° 7.5′ N · 81° 49.1′ W
A Ngäbe community on the Valiente Peninsula's Caribbean coast with a sheltered anchorage — a staging point between Bocas and Escudo de Veraguas.
Practical
Position is the GeoNames Punta Tobobe point; the anchorage is off the community — choose a spot by eye and sounder. Cruiser reviews: sheltered, but locals frequently approach yachts asking for supplies, which some crews find overwhelming (noforeignland). Comarca Ngäbe-Buglé — be respectful and ask before landing. Kusapín communities run tours to Isla Tiburón and Escudo de Veraguas (Visit Panama).
