The Asociación Nacional de Scouts de Panamá is a Panamanian youth scouting organization founded in 1924 and accepted into the World Organization of the Scout Movement (WOSM) that same year. Although WOSM recognition was withdrawn in 1936, Panama regained it membership in 1950. Panamanian Scouting is coeducational, serving both boys and girls. In 2010, the organization had 1,775 Scouts.

Scouts are involved in community service projects such as disaster relief, conservation of natural resources, and collection of toys and games for impoverished children.

The highest award for Scouts is the Scout Balboa, changed from the former Scout Urraca, for a local indigenous leader that fought Spanish conquistadores.
