Hello _____,
Thanks for posting. Bocas del Toro, being on the Caribbean, gets rain almost all year long. However, the month of November is notorious for heavy downpours, so avoid going then. Locals say September and October are the driest months (followed by May and June) and March is statistically the sunniest month.
That said, this year is one of the “driest” years Panama has ever experienced. Due to the El NiƱo phenomenon we’ve had less rain than any year in the past 102 years of record-keeping at the Panama Canal.
*For your convenience and further reading this information and more info on Bocas and weather is available right here on your Panama Insider website in the itineraries section https://internationalliving.com/country_clubs/panama/travel-itineraries/, this news section https://internationalliving.com/2015/06/june-2015-2/ and this forum post: https://internationalliving.com/forums/topic/news-from-panamajune-2015/#post-616408
Enjoy Bocas!
Best,
