About Drake Bay
Overview
Drake Bay is one of Costa Rica’s last truly wild destinations — a place where jungle meets the ocean, wildlife thrives, and development remains intentionally limited. Located on the Osa Peninsula, the region provides direct access to Corcovado National Park and the Caño Island Marine Reserve.
Lifestyle
Life in Drake Bay is peaceful, nature-focused, and community-driven.
Expect scarlet macaws flying overhead, dolphins and whales offshore, untouched beaches, and a welcoming local community.
Infrastructure & Access
Modern infrastructure now makes living and investing here more practical than ever:
• Electricity arrived in Drake Bay in 2006 and in Rincón de San Josecito in 2014
• Bridges now cross every river on the road to Drake Bay
• The municipality provides filtered water tanks
• Kolbi offers cellular coverage and Starlink provides high-speed internet
• Palmar Norte will soon open an international airport, improving access to Drake Bay, Uvita, and Dominical
