Coiba, Island in Panama
Coiba is the largest island in Central America, situated off the southwest coast of Panama.
Once a penal colony, Coiba was designated as a national park in 1992.
The rich biodiversity on Coiba Island reflects its connection to the ancient land bridge between North and South America.
Visiting Coiba National Park requires permission from the Panamanian authorities due to its protected status.
Coiba's isolation has led to a high degree of endemism, making it unique among Pacific Ocean islands.
