If you want almost the opposite of that, then keep reading.<\/p>\n

Because Boca Chica Island is a wild and ancient Panamanian rainforest<\/h3>\n

AND it\u2019s owned by people committed to keeping it that way – US!<\/p>\n

So if you want to get away to a place where you can feel like Adam or Eve looking out on a freshly created world, this is the place. If not… keep looking.<\/p>\n

But before we wax too poetic about pristine tropical beauty, we\u2019ll let the facts speak for themselves.<\/p>\n

Just The Facts:<\/h2>\n
    \n
  • Boca Chica Island is a 400 acre island that\u2019s a 10 minute boat ride from Panama\u2019s Pacific Coast.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
      \n
    • 99% of the Island is covered in primary rainforest, which provides for a truly prehistoric and totally un-touched feel.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
        \n
      • Boca Chica Island borders Panama\u2019s Chiriqui Gulf National Marine Park — home to world-class fishing where 90% of the deep sea fishing records have been caught.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
          \n
        • Boca Chica Island is, in turn, surrounded by 50 other, smaller and mostly uninhabited islands.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
            \n
          • We own the entire 400 acre Island to including its 5 miles of coastline.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

            Active Protection for Boca Chica Island\u2019s Natural Beauty<\/h2>\n

            So… unlike a lot of other Latin American real estate investors, our plan is never to buy utterly pristine land in order to create high-density developments of condos, parking lots, and tourist spots. That\u2019s not how we create value.<\/p>\n

            We create value by finding pristine coastline that can be purchased cheaply and transform that land into a community of adventurous, self-sufficient people who hunger for unspoiled beauty and privacy.<\/p>\n

            And a big part of this business model involves protecting buyer\u2019s investments through very low density (very few houses & lots of land) planning that actively protects the natural beauty of the island.<\/p>\n

            What\u2019s Being Built and Planned for Boca Chica Island:<\/h3>\n
              \n
            • Mango Bay Villa Estate<\/strong> – A villa designed to allow all of the comforts of home in an ancient setting. This is where prospective buyers stay when they come down to walk their reserved lots. See a video of that villa here.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
