    Drake Bay is located in a private nook on the Osa Peninsula in the Pacific Southern Zone, and bordered by the Corcovado National Park. Due to it’s location Drake Bay does take extra effort to reach, but it has a unique and charming small-town vibe that leaves guests with memories that will last them a lifetime. Walking through the beautiful trails that have been enjoyed by previous generations reveal landscapes where the jungle meets the sea.  You can find majestic trees with complex root systems, catch a glimpse of Costa Rica’s famous blue morpho butterflies, marvel at birds gliding along the rim of the ocean waves, and much more! Here are some top reasons why visitors must include Drake Bay in their Costa Rica itinerary:

    1. It’s Remote

    Drake Bay can be reached by air, 4×4 vehicles, or by speedboat. No matter which mode of transportation you choose to take to get to this remote area, it’s bound to reveal different parts of the country that many visitors have not seen! Small national airlines fly from San Jose, Costa Rica’s capital city, or a boat can be taken from towns further north along the Pacific Coast. Experiencing a boat ride at exhilarating speed on the ocean makes the journey exciting and worthwhile. Due to Drake Bay’s remote location, it is not flooded with tourists and remains very unique. Walking through Drake Bay, visitors greet happy locals lining the streets, see pairs of scarlet macaws flying above to their next destination, and hear howler monkeys off in the distance. This remote area is ideal for any nature enthusiast who is looking for adventure, and eager to explore.

    2. Corcovado National Park

This fact alone makes a hike through this Park an absolutely incredible and unforgettable experience!
