| Isla de Coiba | Located in the Gulf of Chiriqui, Coiba National Park is off Panama's Pacific coast. Coiba National Park (Nacional Parque Coiba) is a group of 38 islands including Coiba Island (Isla Coiba) and the waters surrounding them and covers 430,825 acres. Identified by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site in 2005, Coiba National Park offers rich and well preserved natural resources. Because Isla Coiba served Panama as a penal colony, access to the island was very restricted. Almost by accident, 80% of the islands natural resources have survived untouched and flourished through limited human contact. With its designations as a National Park, Isla Coiba, its surrounding waters and island neighbors have been given a greater degree of protection. While still subject to poaching, illegal logging and other trespasses, the Panamanian government has taken a large step in their preservation. |
| Golfito | Golfito is located on Costa Rica's South Pacific coast, about 340 highway kilometers from San Jose. This small port city is a narrow strip along Golfito Bay backed against steep green hills covered with pristine rainforest, with the Golfo Dulce lying seaward outside Golfito Bay. The city has a variety of hotels and restaurants, many of which also now provide free wireless Internet service for customers. Golfito was the main port on the South Pacific Coast of Costa Rica in the days when there was little except huge banana plantations. Diseases which infected the bananas and massive strikes by the workers contributed largely to the United Fruit Company's decision to leave the area. To help remedy the resulting impoverishment of the region, the government established a duty-free zone. In addition to the duty-free shopping, there are a variety of activities one can find around Golfito which are more off the beaten path compared to typical tourist activities in other areas. Beautiful beaches such as Playa Zancudo, and the surfing paradise Pavones are within easy reach from Golfito by car, boat or bus. |
| Isla del Cano | Isla del Cai±o is a small island in the Bahia de Coronado (Coronado Bay) in Costa Rica. It is on the Pacific Ocean side of Costa Rica, 10 miles west of Punta Llorona on Peninsula de Osa. It rises steeply to a flat top of 123 meters in height. It has been established as a protected national park, with a permanent ranger station on the island. It is a popular tourist destination, attracting visitors for its beaches, coral beds, and sea life. Researchers currently use the coral beds to study the factors surrounding coral death and recolonization. Marine life includes manta rays, dolphins, sea turtles, whales, and a wide variety of fish. The limited diversity of terrestrial fauna, however, is noticeable, with the island having less than one percent of the insect diversity of the peninsula and an absence of numerous animals native to the nearby mainland. Evidence of preColumbian human activity on the island is substantial, with some of the most interesting artifacts being stone spheres evidently carved by early civilizations. |
| Drake Bay | First discovered by Sir Francis Drake during his travels around the world in the 16th century, Bahia Drake - or Drake Bay - is located in the northern region of the Osa Peninsula in Costa Rica. Formerly one of the most remote settlements in the country, its growing popularity has meant increased access for tourists, and gradual development has brought increased amenities. Despite this, the area still retains the atmosphere of exploration that makes a vacation to the region so exciting. Tourists are treated to a taste of the exotic, as Drake Bay remains one of the most secluded spots in all of Costa Rica. Quite literally a tropical paradise, the region boasts miles of pristine beaches, spectacular lagoons and coves ideal for scuba diving, as well as leafy palms that fringe the coastline, making Drake Bay an ideal place for those looking to enjoy a quieter vacation in Costa Rica. One of the premier attractions that vacationers won't want to miss is Corcovado National Park. First created in the 1970s to protect the countryside from gold mining and logging, Corcovado remains one of the most stunningly beautiful conservation areas in the country. The nature reserve is a popular destination for ecotourists, and visitors can see an incredible variety of wildlife in the jungles of the reserve. Animals that make their home here include tapirs, red-eyed tree frogs, resplendent quetzals, and scarlet macaws. Enjoying a tropical climate year-round, the area is ideal for active vacationers who want to experience the thrills of jungle exploration. Many miles of hiking trails wind through the majestic rainforests of the region, and there are four ranger stations located throughout the park to provide guidance to explorers who wander off the beaten path. Offering the perfect blend of seclusion, natural beauty and tropical climate, a vacation to Drake Bay could be a once-in-a-lifetime experience. |
| Quepos | Quepos is the gateway to Manuel Antonio National Park. There are numerous bars and restaurants in the city, and a vivacious nightlife. Located fewer than 100 miles (160 km) from San Jose, on the Central Pacific coast of Costa Rica, are the very popular towns of Quepos and much smaller Manuel Antonio. The town is named for the indigenous Quepo Indians who inhabited the place in the colonial era. Quepos is a picturesque town with a small bit of the colonial era wall left. It has excellent area bus service. Quepos offers fishing for numerous varieties of fish, especially Pacific Sailfish. Peak fishing season is from November to April for billfish. Manuel Antonio has the most popular National Park and beach in Costa Rica. Several years ago the country's park service imposed limits on the number of visitors to the park (600 per day, and it's closed on Mondays), to prevent this tiny natural area from becoming 'resortified'. |
| Caldera | A very important port in the Pacific, Puerto Caldera sits near the mouth of the Golfo de Nicoya. Located in the northern region of Puntarenas province on the Central Pacific Coast, this tiny town is a key port for ships from all across the globe. With an industrial port complex built here to accommodate both cruise liners as well as cargo vessels, Puerto Caldera plays a vital role in Costa Rica's trade with the world. Just over one hour west of San Jose, the capital, Puerto Caldera acts as a significant access spot to the Pacific Coast. A 45 minute drive from the touristy town of Jaco, and about 18 km southeast from the city of Puntarenas, this port has no real passenger facilities or services with the exception of a small port terminal. The terminal here is air-conditioned with restroom facilities, an information desk, public phone access and a few vendors aimed at tourists. For international visitors a call center is at hand which accepts all major credit cards. Situated in a lush and unspoiled region of the province and with close proximity to many of Puntarenas's major tourist attractions and nature reserves, Puerto Caldera is a great place to parasail. Perfect for the adventure tourist looking for some action, this small port town has some amazing steep cliffs, from which one can take off to see some truly breathtaking views of the country's Pacific Coast. |
