Overview

Tucked between the Caribbean Sea and the Pacific Ocean, Costa Rica is one of those places that feels alive the moment you arrive. Rainforests hum with wildlife, waterfalls crash into jungle pools, and volcanoes rise dramatically above misty valleys. This is a country that takes nature seriously, with national parks protecting everything from sloths and toucans to sea turtles. You can zip-line through cloud forests, surf warm Pacific waves, or simply unwind on a quiet beach. Beyond the scenery, it’s the relaxed “pura vida” lifestyle that stays with you long after you leave.
