My husband and I are seriously thinking of cashing in and heading down with our two sons. We think we want to be on the Pacific coast so we can surf and fish. We are going down in November to check things out. We are unsure where to start looking. Any advice out there?

Well I'm not an expat, but I'm in the relocation business here in Panama. I'm very glad you're considering relocating here, and trust me you won't be dissapointed. Panama has a lot to offer, but you do have to consider certain things before settling in.
You mentioned you have 2 boys. If they are still attending high school, I'm very sorry but moving to the beach is out of the question. The only English speaking high schools are in Panama City, unless you plan to do home schooling. Now if they're fluent in Spanish then that's another issue. You could get them into any school, however be advised that in Panama private schools are better than public schools, and if you don't live in a major town or city, you will only get public schools.
As for you guys surfing and fishing, well you'll get a lot of that. If you want to buy into some of the major developments that are going on right now, consider visiting the strip of beaches that start in Gorgona Beach and end up in Buenaventura beach. if you want to buy a piece of land and build your house by yourselves, or hire a contractor to do it for you, then please hire the services of a reputable attorney, a reputable real estate broker, or someone like me in the relocation business that won't scam you. There are a lot of issues to deal with if you want to buy land on your own, and you must have the right guiding hand to do so, or you might end up empty handed.
There are other interesting place where you can get some land, and for that I would recommend you talk with a real estate broker that can show you what's available.
