Marina Bahía Golfito, is an eco-luxury marina and destination that is redefining Costa Rica’s Southern Pacific coast as a premier hub for yachting, sportfishing, adventure travel, and sustainable luxury.
Located in the heart of Golfo Dulce on Costa Rica’s southern Pacific coast, Marina Bahía Golfito offers an experience unlike anywhere else in Central America. One of only four tropical fjords in the world, Golfo Dulce is recognized as a natural sanctuary and sits within one of the most biodiverse regions on Earth. Surrounded by Corcovado National Park, Piedras Blancas National Park, and the Golfito National Wildlife Refuge, the destination offers visitors unparalleled access to pristine rainforests, protected waters, and extraordinary wildlife, including dolphins, humpback whales, manta rays, hammerhead sharks, and countless bird species.
As part of the IGY Marina network, Marina Bahía Golfito combines world-class marina infrastructure with authentic Costa Rican hospitality. The marina features 54 slips accommodating vessels from 40 to 350 feet, the fastest fuel pump on Latin America’s Pacific coast, concierge and provisioning services, and custom itineraries developed in partnership with Origen Escapes and Sea Masters, allowing guests to explore the region’s untouched coastline by sea.
Beyond its marina facilities, Marina Bahía Golfito offers a complete luxury destination experience. Guests can stay at Amaka Ocean Living Lodge, dine at La Playa Restaurant, unwind at Aura Spa, or enjoy premium amenities including a crew lounge, event space, gym, jacuzzi, and the Marina Village, a boutique commercial plaza featuring local shopping and services.
The destination is equally renowned for its outdoor experiences. Golfito is home to more than 90 world sportfishing records, with year-round opportunities to catch sailfish, marlin, tuna, and other prized species in the calm, biodiverse waters of Golfo Dulce.
