Rare 1.5-Acre Waterfront Property with Road Access in Tierra Oscura

A Build-Ready Slice of Paradise with Private Dock, Fertile Soil & Gated Security

Welcome to one of the most unique land offerings in the Bocas del Toro region—a 1.5-acre waterfront property that blends serene privacy with practical convenience. Nestled in the lush mainland hills of Tierra Oscura, this flat, build-ready lot sits just above sea level with direct access by boat and road, an incredibly rare combination in this part of Panama.

Imagine stepping out of your future home into a living botanical garden. Towering old-growth trees provide natural canopy, while bananas, plantains, cacao, water apple, pineapples, and even a massive monster bamboo sway in the breeze. Hibiscus hedges, coconut palms, and walking palms line the lot, which has been lovingly maintained and landscaped for beauty and privacy.

The lot features:

Road access via a newly built route connecting Tierra Oscura and Buena Esperanza

A private dock for easy boat access to Bocas Town and nearby islands

Volcanic black soil, ideal for permaculture, gardening, or landscaping

Security gate at the community entrance, creating a secluded yet connected neighborhood

Electricity is nearby and building materials can be delivered directly by truck for just $35 per load—a game-changer for remote construction in the region. This is ROP (Right of Possession) land with a 23-year ownership history (8 years maintained by the current owners), located in a tight-knit but spacious community where lots are separated for privacy but close enough to enjoy neighborly support.
