Bahia Chal

Costa Rica

Seeing is believing.

This property is located on the Peninsula de Osa, on the side of Golfo Dulce. The exact locality name is Bahia Chal, approximately 36 km southwest of Chacarita, and about 6 km east of Rincon de Osa.

The property is served by an asphalted road from Chacarita and the main property entrance is just off this national road, Costa Rica National Highway 245. The property is comprised of two parts: 28 hectares of deeded land and 12 hectares governed by the Maritime Concessions Zone (under the governance of the Laws of Zona Maritima Terrestre). The property opens up to the coast line, roughly 673 meters long, and there is an existing beach roughly 150 meters wide and covered with remarkable grey volcanic sand.

The property is served with electricity, municipal water supply, and a private road descending to the beach, which connects the National Highway 245 directly to the waterfront. This road however is private and spans roughly 500 meters. The property is in direct line of sight of one of the entrances to the Corcovado National Park (about 6 km across the Golfo Dulce). The views of the bay are breathtaking. There is a large swath of the primary forest on top of the main hill where there are existing nature trails that lead to the hill's peak. Atop the peak, 50 meters above the bay, one finds a panoramic vista of the gulf -- a view that can only be described as truly spectacular.

The property features five natural water sources in the form of brooks, all five of which meet and form a single large brook that opens into the gulf. This brook is officially named and is known as "La Quebrada Honda". There is also a substantial waterfall that stretches nearly 33 feet (10 m) tall. The water sources and waterfall are not only crystalline, they are plentiful sources of freshwater year-round.

There is a large house on the property with approximately 324 square meters (approx. 3500 sq. ft.) and three bedrooms, kitchen, and indoor and outdoor bathrooms. This structure has a concrete foundation and metal-frame roof.

Situated in one of the most biodiverse areas of the world, this property is home to a wide range of flora and fauna, such as various fruit trees (cashews, almonds, coco, manzana de agua, cacao), scarlet macaws and toucans, dolphins, game fish, orcas, and killer whales that can be observed along their migratory routes near the property. The waters are deep and perfect for scuba diving or snorkeling. The property is moreover well suited for all manners of water sports and recreational fishing, as well as various attractions featuring the property's natural landscape.

A robust travel tour program can be designed for tourists based on the available local destinations. The bay is also suitable for the construction of a floating marina, for instance. The property also lends itself to the creation of an ecologically minded, sustainable development designed for today's global citizen whose values place an emphasis on the experiential aspects of life.

Currently, the drive from the San Jose area (Juan Santamaria International airport) takes about 3.5 hours. There are flights available from the Juan Santamaria International airport via Sansa national airline to Puerto Jimenez, about 30 km to the southwest via National Highway 245.
