San Jose Island is the second largest of the Pearl Islands with a landmass of 44 sq. kilometers or approximately 24 sq. miles. The island is located in the middle of the Gulf of Panama and just 90 kilometers or about 55 miles away from Panama City. It can be reached by boat in approximately 2 hours and by turbopropeller plane in 20 minutes.

Pearl Island History:

In pre-Colombian times, the Pearl Islands were ruled by an Indian king whose subjects’ main occupation was pearl diving. Pearls were then used as ornament and to trade with.

Some of the most renowned pearls in the world were collected in these waters. The Pearl Islands aroused the greed of the Spaniards. Vasco Nuñez de Balboa, who discovered and gave name to the Pacific Ocean from a point less than 90 kilometers from San Jose Island, was attracted by its wealth in gold and pearls. Later on, the Pearl Island sheltered famous pirates of different nationalities that for several centuries looted the wealthy Spanish settlements and fleet.
