Golfito is an important border town in the southern part of Costa Rica's Puntarenas province, situated on the Gulf of Golfito on the Pacific coast, next to the Panamanian border, and known for its unique "rainforest-meets-sea" landscape. Once the hub of Costa Rica's banana trade, the city has been transformed into an eco-tourism destination, surrounded by the Ostionar National Wildlife Refuge and an abundance of rainforests rich in biodiversity, making it an ideal destination for birdwatching, hiking, and wildlife observation. The city's small size is a fusion of Caribbean and Nicaraguan cultures, with a vibrant port activity, and is also characterized by quality coffee and cacao cultivation, attracting global travelers in search of nature and serenity.
