An awesome experience to cross the Canal and Gatun Locks, get a cabin on level 5 or 6 and enjoy an up close view of your ship passage. You’ll want to return and grab a different spot for new photos.

Interesting going through Gatun lock from start to finish, entering the Atlantic Ocean. It started to rain as the last lock gates opened. I and another passenger stood in the rain on the bow of the ship when the heavens opened up, giving us a drenching. We were soaked but it was wonderful.

It is the Panama Canal. This is a west coast to east coast full transit through the canal. They have locks and so do many other places. I have been through different locks and what sets these apart is the west coast basalt hill and the other volcanic deposits. Both the west coast and east coast have fantastic local arts.

Enjoyed the visit from Colón while here for the day. Was a beautiful hot humid sunny day. 2nd time I went it was monsoon season but the new part of the canal had opened by then. Good visit good value.

Very cool and a must visit by cruise ship. Takes 8-10 hrs, so plenty of time to take videos and pictures.
