Almirante is a city in the Province of Bocas del Toro of the Republic of Panama. Its name is Spanish for Admiral.
Tourist Use
For travelers, Almirante is mainly used as a jumping off point for land travel to other cities on the mainland, Panama or to Costa Rica. An approximately 30-minute water taxi ride from Bocas del Toro, which usually costs $3.00, will land persons in Almirante. There is not a traditional bus terminal, or even a traditional bus stop there. Instead, there is a gathering of people waiting for the buses near a restaurant on a corner of the outskirts of the city. From the water taxi dock, it's only a few minute taxi ride to the bus stop known as "el cruce." There are taxis waiting both at the water taxi dock, and at "el cruce." The bus ride from Almirante to the city of David, Panama costs about $7.00 per person, and makes a stop about an hour and a half to two hours through the approximately 4 and a half hour bus ride (times depend on weather conditions) at a cafeteria/convince store for a food, water, and bathroom stop. The bus often makes stops at little settlements along the route to pick up other riders, and drop some off, and ends at the main bus terminal in David, where people pay the drivers assistant upon exiting the bus ticket.
