Gatún Lake was created when the canal was built, flooding hills that became islands. Several of them are home to monkeys and other wildlife, and you reach them by small boat from the marina at Gamboa, sharing the lake with the ships crossing the canal.
Expect capuchins, howler and tamarin monkeys, plus sloths, caimans, toucans and herons along the shore.
