The Panama Canal primarily accommodates Panamax ships, which are designed to fit the canal's dimensions, as well as larger vessels known as Neopanamax or New Panamax ships, introduced after the canal's expansion in 2016. These ships include container ships, bulk carriers, and liquefied natural gas (LNG) carriers, among others. The canal serves as a crucial shortcut for maritime traffic between the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, significantly reducing travel time and distance for these vessels.
