Playa Venao is an ocean-view community surrounded by beautiful nature at its best. Located on the Pacific coast of Panama, Playa Venao offers one of the most beautiful beaches in Panama. The horseshoe-shaped bay offers year-round consistent surf, and the diverse ecosystem allows for ample encounters with baby whales, monkeys, turtles, iguanas, crabs, frigate birds, tuna, and sometimes dolphins.

It is an ideal setting for beach lovers, surfers, yogis. Lovers come here looking for a romantic getaway or even as their wedding or honeymoon spot. It is also the perfect location for any family vacation. When the tide draws out, the water recedes and leaves a mirror-like sand surface. The sunrises and sunsets that occur at these times are full of color and like Heaven on Earth.
