Where Jungle Meets Sea: A Luxury Yacht Journey Through Panama & Costa Rica
Where jungle presses hard against the Pacific and roads simply disappear, a private yacht becomes the only meaningful way in. This journey through Panama and Costa Rica’s wild Pacific coast unfolded far from marinas and resorts, granting rare access to places still governed by tides, rainforest, and wildlife rather than schedules. From the protected reefs of Coiba National Park to the mirror-calm waters of Golfo Dulce and the raw biodiversity of Corcovado, travelling by yacht revealed a side of Central America few ever experience. Days were shaped by snorkelling and diving in UNESCO-listed marine reserves, quiet landings on empty beaches, and guided walks through rainforest that remains largely untouched. Blending expedition-style exploration with refined onboard living, this was not a cruise, but a moving sanctuary, a voyage defined by remoteness, ecological significance, and the quiet freedom that only a private yacht can deliver.
