Golfito isn’t glamorous. It isn’t crowded. And that’s precisely why you want to go there. Golfito, Costa Rica, is a sleepy little seaside town located on one side with the tranquil waters of the Golfo Dulce and on the other with the foothills of the rainforest. Not many tourists have discovered it—which is saying a lot for a country rich with over-commercialized tourist spots—but it doesn’t matter. Golfito has many huge natural attractions and access to some of the most off-the-beaten-path areas of the country.
Let Go Explore With Me be your guide to some of Golfito’s best-kept secrets with a collection of thoughtfully planned tours with licensed locals—from jungle hikes to working fishing vessels to dolphin floats and coconut sips in the water. Golfito is located in the heart of tropical rainforest teeming with life.
Our guided jungle tours take you into the Golfito Wildlife Refuge, where you’ll hike beneath the trees, cross through freshwater streams, and play with monkeys and toucans—or just watch them if you’re lucky. The biodiversity is insane—no pun intended—and since we are off the beaten path compared to some of the more touristy parks in Costa Rica, it’s much more likely you’ll have the forest to yourself.
Our guides are locals who grew up trekking through the woods, and they’ll afford you access to one of the quietest yet greenest parts along the Pacific Coast of Costa Rica.
The Golfo Dulce is one of only a few tropical fjords in the world—peaceful but deep, with incredible biodiversity. Our boat tours set out over the warm, calm waters to locate dolphins, sea turtles, mantas, and even whales migrating at sunrise/sunset if you’re on board at a certain time of year.
Birders should pack their binoculars; those just along for the ride will be equally as impressed. We offer half-day and full-day excursions ideal for families, photographers, or anyone who simply wants to get out on the water and enjoy Golfito from the water.
