    The Gulf may offer protection SOME OF THE TIME but not ALL OF THE TIME. Why did they move NOMBRE DE DIOS to PORTOBELLO? Because Nombre De Dios was a great port but OPEN to the sea in rough weather destroying many ships on Panama's Caribbean side when hurricanes to the north brewed up the seas. Portobello offered a better protection from the sea. Check out the GULF of PAPAGAYO link. It looks quite open to the sea to me. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Gu...agayo_NASA.jpg
