Featured Costa Rica Marina
General History: Golfito, Costa
Rica
History Built in the late 1930s by the
United Fruit Company, now known as Chiquita Brands,
Golfito enjoyed a magnificent heyday as the centerpiece
of the banana production industry during much
of the 20th century. In fact, over ninety percent
of the country’s banana exports during
the 1950s were grown and distributed from Golfito’s
quiet shores.
.
Chosen by United Fruit executives for its calm, deep waters, Golfito provided
a safe, natural harbor for loading the fruit company’s “Great White
Fleet” of banana boats, aptly named for their fresh white paint, which
reflected the sun’s hot, tropical rays.
As United Fruit witnessed continued success
in its Golfito operations, the company invested
heavily in the construction of new roads, homes,
schools, banks and hospitals, and with the help
of the Atlantic Railroad, a project originally
started in 1871 by one of United Fruit’s
founders, Golfito was transformed from a vast
wilderness to a true Banana Republic.
