This Indian reservation lies in the north east of the isthmus, on the coastal strip from San Blas Point to the border with Colombia; it also includes a beautiful archipelago of tiny islands inhabited by the Kuna Indians (32,446 inhabitants) who have their own type of government and also preserve their own culture. The Government administrator or "Intendente" works out of the island of El Porvenir. Great quantities of coconuts are grown and the "molas" which the women sew in reverse applique are a sought-after souvenir for tourists and cruise ship passengers who visit.
