There are properties you buy to build a house.

And there are properties you acquire because you understand scale, scarcity, and timing.

This 67-hectare oceanfront estate in Arenas, located on the west coast of Panama’s Azuero Peninsula, is one of those rare coastal holdings that offers both physical presence and long-term strategic value.

With approximately two miles of continuous Pacific frontage under single ownership, this is not a typical beachfront parcel. It is an entire coastal landscape.

Listed in Torio & Morrillo due to proximity.

The Land - Form, Elevation, and Natural Structure

The terrain is irregular in shape and topography, composed of rolling hills, inclined lomas, and undulating ridgelines that gradually descend toward the sea. The elevation changes create natural view corridors throughout the property. From multiple high points, the Pacific opens up in wide panoramic scale, with the coastline stretching into the distance.

This is not flat coastal farmland.
It is elevated oceanfront terrain.

That distinction matters.

The ridgelines create natural separation between potential future build sites. The valleys and saddles offer protected areas with privacy. The slope allows for gravity-friendly drainage and view-oriented construction without excessive engineering.

The property is currently overgrown with native forage, secondary growth, hardwood and wild trees typical of the region. The perimeter and divisions are fenced with a combination of living and traditional wooden posts and barbed wire.

There are no structural improvements. No buildings. No partial projects. No abandoned infrastructure.

It is raw land - clean and open to vision.

Mooring Potential

Along portions of the shoreline, the property benefits from natural contouring that creates sheltered areas and protective coves. These formations reduce direct wave exposure and offer calmer water conditions compared to fully open coastline. For boat owners, this presents the possibility of natural mooring in protected pockets along the shore, subject of course to feasibility and permitting. The combination of rocky headlands and curved beach sections provides both visual character and functional shelter, which is not common across long, fully exposed Pacific frontage. For someone who understands coastal use beyond just views, this adds another practical layer to the property’s value.

Two Miles of Pacific Coastline

The property extends along approximately two miles of Pacific shoreline, blending sandy stretches, rocky formations, and small coves.

It is not a uniform straight beach. It is a dynamic coastline.

The orientation is west-facing, providing uninterrupted sunset exposure over open ocean. This coastline captures prevailing breezes and expansive Pacific views that are increasingly sought after along Azuero’s west coast.

Walking the shoreline within your own property would take time. That alone tells you the scale.

Water and Natural Features

A live freshwater creek runs through the property, providing a natural water source and contributing to the ecological diversity of the land. Being both oceanfront and creek-fed adds long-term practicality and development flexibility.

The surrounding region remains rich in wildlife and native vegetation. The area is known for marine life offshore, bird activity, and the kind of rural coastal ecosystem that has largely disappeared in more developed areas of Panama.

Access - Remote in Feel, Reachable by Car

Direct access is from Mariato toward Arenas via asphalt road, followed by well-maintained select material road toward Pachotal where the property is located.

This is not an isolated jungle parcel requiring extreme off-road access. It is reachable by car through established road infrastructure. For a property of this size and coastline, that level of access is significant.

Any buyer would need to invest in internal infrastructure - roads, utilities, water systems, and potentially power solutions depending on the intended use. That is expected at this scale. The underlying terrain, however, supports that investment.

Nothing about the land makes development unrealistic. It requires planning, not miracles.

What Could This Become?

A 67-hectare oceanfront holding is not for everyone. It requires vision and patience.

This property could realistically serve as:

• A multi-residence private estate with complete privacy buffers

• A phased residential development

• An eco-resort or tourism concept integrated into the natural hills

• A conservation-focused acquisition

• A strategic land bank for long-term coastal appreciation

As the Azuero Peninsula continues to develop and infrastructure gradually improves, large continuous beachfront holdings will become increasingly fragmented. Parcels of this size will either be subdivided or absorbed by long-term owners who understand their scarcity.

Once divided, they cannot be reassembled.

Scarcity on the West Coast of Azuero

On the west coast of the peninsula, large oceanfront tracts with elevation and direct road access are extremely limited.

In several years, finding 67 hectares with two miles of coastline at comparable pricing will likely be significantly more difficult. The east coast does not offer this same combination of west-facing sunsets, elevation, scale, and continuity under one title.

This is not a short-term flip opportunity.

It is a positioning asset.

A Property for Someone Who Thinks Long Term

This property is suited for someone who:

• Understands coastal scarcity

• Values elevation and natural topography

• Is comfortable investing in infrastructure

• Thinks in 10 to 20 year horizons

• Wants control over miles of coastline

It is not about building one house.
It is about securing a stretch of Pacific coastline that will not be recreated.

About Arenas - Mariato District, Azuero Peninsula

Arenas is located in the Mariato District on the west coast of Panama’s Azuero Peninsula. This region remains one of the least densely developed coastal areas in the country.

The landscape is defined by rolling green hills that meet the Pacific, wide beaches, fishing activity, and open ocean exposure. It is rural, authentic, and low density. Development has been gradual and measured, preserving the natural character of the coastline.

The road from Mariato toward Arenas is paved for most of the route, with improved secondary roads providing access into coastal sectors. Infrastructure continues to improve over time while the region maintains its agricultural and coastal identity.

For investors and land bankers, the appeal lies in scale, access, and long-term growth potential. For private buyers, it offers space, privacy, and control over a rare stretch of Pacific shoreline.

As more of Panama’s coastline becomes subdivided and built upon, areas like Arenas represent what much of the country once was - open, expansive, and undeveloped.

Opportunities at this scale do not come often.
