Updated August 2026: Panama is currently Level 2: Exercise Increased Caution due to crime and potential civil unrest. The Level 4 warnings apply to specified parts of the Mosquito Gulf and Darién region, not San Blas/Guna Yala generally. Travelers should still plan for remote conditions, limited medical access, boat/weather disruptions, and verify current official guidance before travel.
