SAN BLAS ISLANDS
The San Blas Islands of Panama is an archipelago of 378 islands of which only 49 are inhabited. They lie off the north coast of the Isthmus, east of the Panama Canal. Home to the Kuna Indians, they are a part of the Comarca Kuna Yala along the Caribbean coast of Panama.
Since 1930 this area is known as the Comarca Kuna Yala, because they have a special self government status from Panama.
