Costa Rica

Costa Rica offers naturalists a dream vacation, with both lush rainforests and pristine beaches. There is truly a Costa Rican vacation designed for every tourist and finding the right combination just takes a little research and the right travel company.

Costa Rica’s beaches give you ample time to soak up the sun and just relax while on vacation, but turn it up a notch and you can be trekking through a rainforest or cloud forest or standing at the base of an active volcano.

If you’re willing to take the adventure up another notch, add a whitewater rafting excursion and visit a green sea turtle nesting spot, or experience one of the only places where the endangered scarlet macaw still decorates the sky in sunset glory.

For those who want to see and do it all, try whitewater rafting the Pacuare River, biking across tropical plantations, hiking Saverge Reserve’s cloud forest, and a languorous nap in the sand on the Pacific coastline.

No matter what type of vacation you select, you’ll leave Costa Rica with a deeper understanding of the country’s motto, Pura Vida – Pure Life!
