Origen Escapes announces new office at the state-of-the-art
Marina Bahia Golfito

Luxury experience experts Origen Escapes announce the formal opening of their newest sales and operations office at the Marina Bahia Golfito on 25 October this year.

Costa Rica is extraordinary, a place where there are no limits to adventure, still undiscovered and wild in places, a destination to unwind, recharge, to embrace life, the natural world - #PuraVida.   

It is a yachting destination waiting to be discovered...with hundreds of beaches, bays, coves, and islands along the roughly 800-mile-long Pacific coastline, considered one of the richest ecosystems on the planet.
And so perfectly placed for adventurous onwards journeys in the Pacific Triangle of Panama and the Galapagos!

In an alliance with yacht agent, Maritima Interoceanica CR and charter broker, Aquazeal, Origen Escapes will be offering their trademark extraordinary itineraries and experiences alongside agent and charter brokerage services in a one stop shop for Costa Rica’s yachting market.

With a foresight that comes from years of experience, Origen remains one step ahead with this office opening, backing up their belief in Costa Rica’s burgeoning yachting industry. The new location, in the very south of the country on the Pacific side - an unchartered territory for most travelers – brings with it new opportunities for innovative experiences created exclusively for yachts.
With its easy access to the bio-intense nature of the Osa Peninsula and surrounding rainforest and the proximity to the world class diving of Caño Island and Cocos Island, there is no question that with the industry inclination towards ‘experiential yachting’, this area is going to become increasingly more popular over the coming years.

A new charter law introduced in April 2021 allows foreign-flagged yachts to charter and stay up to a year in Costa Rica.
We are incredibly excited about new charter law that was introduced last year” said Origen Escapes Director of Sales and Marketing Gemma Cope, “it will be the start of a huge growth in the yachting market here and in Latin America as a whole, something which we are proud to be at the forefront of with our new office here in Golfito.


The recently opened state-of-the-art Marina Bahia Golfito, an IGY Destination Marina, was designed with larger slips to accommodate the super- and mega- yachts and, as the first stop when travelling from Panama, it is considered a key marina for Costa Rica – an introduction to its many wonders. 

Origen Escapes’ presence here will provide both a warm and knowledgeable welcome for yachts arriving, a guiding hand that will showcase why Costa Rica is such an up and coming destination for the industry.

A member of the Experience Yacht Services alliance and a key player in the introduction of Costa Rica’s recent change in charter laws, Origen have plenty of industry knowledge in their ranks - with a personable, experienced team to support and guide you every step of the way.
