Cocosolo is a coastal town in the Chiriqui Province of Panama, located on the Gulf of Chiriqui on the Pacific coast. It has traditional fishing and agriculture as its main economic pillars, and is surrounded by mangrove ecosystems and beach landscapes.
Cocosolo is adjacent to the World Heritage Site of Coyva National Park and has a rich marine biodiversity. The surrounding waters are a breeding ground for sea turtles and a habitat for migratory birds, and the mangrove wetlands provide an important support for the local fishery resources.
The local economy is based on small-scale fishing and coconut cultivation, preserving the traditional Panamanian village lifestyle. Religious festivals and fishing-related celebrations are held annually, reflecting a blend of Spanish colonial culture and indigenous traditions.
In recent years Cocosolo has seen the gradual development of bed and breakfasts and guide services thanks to the neighboring surf resorts and ecotourism routes. The town's infrastructure is relatively basic, making it ideal for travelers looking for an original travel experience to explore the Chiriqui Bay coastline.
