Drake Bay tides

Predicted from Golfito, Golfo Dulce, NOAA station TWC0339, 31 miles away. No gauge exists nearer than this. The coast between runs open and unbroken, so the heights hold well and only the turn of the tide may fall a little either side of the times shown. Heights in feet above MLLW. Also covers Playa San Josecito (Drake Bay), Corcovado and Caño Island.

About Drake Bay

Serving as the wilderness gateway to Corcovado National Park, Drake Bay covers remote, pristine coastlines including Playa San Josecito and the offshore marine sanctuary of Caño Island. Drake Bay offers world-class scuba diving and snorkeling at Caño Island, where clear waters host white-tip reef sharks, sea turtles, and massive shoals of fish, while San Josecito provides a turquoise cove for swimming and beachcombing. The jungle-backed beaches are littered with natural driftwood. Tracking tide predictions is vital: low tides uncover vibrant intertidal life along San Josecito’s rocky fringes, while tide schedules govern safe boat launches through the mouth of the Agujitas River and dictate ideal water clarity for island diving excursions.
