About IKIGAI SAILING
IKIGAI SAILING
Mission & Vision
We exist to create space for people to slow down, reconnect, and return to what truly matters.
Through life at sea, we invite a shift toward a more natural rhythm, where well-being is not something to chase, but something that emerges from simplicity: movement, real food, meaningful connections, and time spent in nature.
Guided by the wind, we explore remote places and different cultures, not only to discover the world, but to rediscover ourselves.

Directions
You will most likely arrive at Tocumen International Airport in Panama City, where one of our trusted contacts will be waiting to take you to the hotel of your choice. We recommend spending the night in the historic district of Casco Viejo, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, where you can enjoy a pleasant Latin evening filled with history and music.
The next morning, a taxi will pick you up from the hotel and take you to Carti, on the Caribbean coast, arriving around 8:30 AM.
Once in Carti, a lancha (a typical local boat), which has been reserved for us to reach Banedup Island, where Ikigai will be ready to begin the cruise.
