Slightly larger than Pedasi, El Valle de Anton, the next on the list of best places to retire in Panama, is all about nature. It offers plenty of natural attractions and beautiful landscapes that you will never be tired of enjoying. You will be close to the coast, but not directly on it, since El Valle de Anton is nestled between mountains and forests. The city represents one of the favorite weekend destinations for people across Panama, but the expat and retiree communities are also becoming bigger in the recent years.
