Dry and Wet Season. The dry season starts on Dec to May and the Wet season from June to November. This is how the people makes plans in Panama City, the wet season you will have really heavy rain for many hours, and the streets get flooded. However, in San Blas Islands during the rain season, you will not necessarily find rain every day in San Blas, there are complete weeks with no rain at all, and most importantly the sea is super calmed. So, its actually better to travel to San bLas during the rainy season! Worst you will get a little wet during max. 1 hour. The rain in San Blas last much less than in the city. Now, which month you should be careful to go to San Blas? Just February, you will have big waves. In this month, we only recommend visiting the nearest Island, for example Aguja Island is only 15minutes form the port.
