Garabito continues to maintain its status as the fastest growing and most developed tourism region in Costa Rica. 
HISTORY
The Municipality of Garabito, founded in 1899, is named for the Indian Chief who fought heroically against Spanish Conquistadores in the 1500’s. His war tactics were sophisticated and his kingdom was the largest controlled area in Costa Rica at that time, stretching from Cartago in the Central Valley, to its seat of power in the mountains of Carara.
Comprising 316 square kilometers, Garabito is home to over 20,000 permanent residents, with a floating population of approximately 40,000. The year-round population in the Garabito region has doubled in the last five years bringing with it a plethora of new businesses and modern services, as well as private learning institutions catering to adults and children alike.
Widely regarded as the most valuable real estate in the country, this beautiful stretch of coastline is bordered by the Pacific Ocean and mountainous primary and secondary rainforests. The seaside canton began attracting international interest in the 1970’s when artists found the tranquil and splendid surroundings perfect for creative inspiration. Garabito has served as location for several international film and TV productions including “1492”, filed on location in Jaco, Herradura and Punta Leona.
