Panama is a beautiful country with many stunning locations that are perfect for film production. From the vibrant city of Panama City to the lush rainforest of Darien, Panama offers filmmakers a variety of landscapes and settings to capture on camera. With its diverse cultures, languages, and landscapes, Panama is an ideal location for filmmakers looking to create unique stories or capture beautiful visuals. In this article, we’ll explore some of the best locations in Panama for film production and discuss the benefits they offer.
Panama has access to the Pacific and the Atlantic Oceans. Because of its narrow shape, you can swim in both oceans on the same day.
These are the best locations for filming at the beaches:
1. The Pearl Islands
2. Bocas del Toro
For jungles and rainforests, we recommend:
1. Gamboa: Gamboa has road access so you can reach the dense jungle with production vehicles and is 30 minutes away from Panama City.
2. The Pearl Islands: Here you can find some uninhabited jungles, completely private so you can film your survival tv show comfortably.
There are dozens of exotic and cinematic locations in Panama, that will give high production value to your production.
Because Panama is small, that translates into lower production costs for you when moving from one location to another.
Panama has the same 30 Celsius average temperature all year round, a rainy season, and a sunny season, so you can shoot all year round.
Labor costs are also lower compared to those in the United States, this also translates to lower production costs.
