In a segregated area of 400 hectares, the Colon Free Zone is located at the entrance to the Panama Canal on the Caribbean side, Province of Colon. It is considered the second largest free zone in the world and the first in the Western Hemisphere. Due to its unequaled geographic position and its access to four important ports in the Caribbean and one on the Pacific, deemed to be the most modern of Latin America, it is what we can call an International Ports Center. The ports are the following: Manzanillo International Terminal, Colon Ports Terminal, Colon Container Terminal (Evergreen), Panama Ports Company (Hutchinson International) with the Cristobal terminal in the Caribbean and the Port of Balboa in the Pacific.

In addition to the ports located in the proximities of the free zone, facing the free zone one finds the following transportation services:

  • France Field Airport.
  • Panama Railroad Terminal.
  • Access to the Panama-Colon Highway.
  • Cruise ship terminals.
  • Land transportation terminals.

In areas close to the Colon Free Zone the visitors will be able to enjoy a variety of attractions such as: scuba diving, snorkeling, angling, surfing, history and culture considered Historic Patrimony for Mankind by UNESCO, Caribbean gastronomy, Afro-Antillean folklore and traditions, eco-touristic activities, and much more...…
