## Description

Drake Bay (IATA DRK, ICAO MRDK) is a short landing strip on Costa Rica's Osa Peninsula in Puntarenas province, feeding the eco-tourism traffic around Corcovado National Park. Light aircraft serve it on domestic sectors, chiefly from San José; there is no cargo terminal, no cold chain and no customs office, so freight relevance stops at hand-baggage size. Air cargo for Costa Rica — pineapples, melons, ornamental plants, medical goods — is handled at San José Juan Santamaría (SJO) and Liberia Daniel Oduber (LIR), while the Osa Peninsula itself is supplied by road and boat.
