Position is the GeoNames Bahía Azul bay point. Bahía Azul is the Ngäbe village on the bay and Punta Bluefield is at 9.18350, -81.91999 (GeoNames). A 2016 cruising account describes 'Laguna de Bluefield' as a deep bay with deep, tempting coves, a trail from the far end to the ocean side, and empty surf breaks. There are no hostels or restaurants, so arrive provisioned. This is Ngäbe-Buglé comarca land, so ask permission before landing. Our sources give no depths, so enter in good light with the Bauhaus guide. Playa Raya and Tobobe (separate entries) are nearby.
