The town of Golfito is located on the southern Pacific Coast of Costa Rica near the border of Panama. From the northern section, trails go up to the Refugio Nacional de Vida Silvestre Golfito (Golfito Wildlife Refuge) on the hill, which extends across to the other side of the bay and is part of the national parks of Costa Rica. The area has some of the highest rain forests in Central America, and much of the region surrounding the town is characterized by tall evergreen forest.

Beautiful beaches such as Playa Zancudo and the surfing paradise Pavones are within easy reach from Golfito by car, boat or bus.

Star Flyer will call at Golfito on it’s new round-trip Puerto Caldera, Costa Rica, itineraries beginning in Nov. 2010.

    What a beautiful thing. Imagine paddling with your surfboard off this beautiful Star Flyer, into a beautiful set of waves at Pavones… simply heaven.
