An entire country waiting to be explored, Costa Rica's territory is an ecological wonder. Truly unique, this small land mass only encompasses 0.03 per cent of the planet's surface, but belongs to the top 20 richest countries in biodiversity and species density, which gives new meaning to the country's name "rich coast."
With a marine surface 10 times the size of its land bound surface, Costa Rica is a haven for diving, snorkelling and surfing fanatics alike. With many wildlife protected areas on land and in the sea, such as the famous Cocos Island National Park, the preservation of the country's biodiversity and lush, natural beauty is a top priority to Costa Ricans.
A surfing hot-spot, Costa Rica is rated as the world's third best surfing destination, runner up only to Hawaii and Indonesia. With more than 1200 kilometres of coastline and consistent year-round surf, it's no wonder that Costa Rica is a surfer's paradise. What's more, this country is one of few in the world where two impressive oceans are within a 6-hour drive of each other. This makes it possible to start the day surfing in the Pacific and finish the day riding the waves in the Caribbean Sea.
Whether its rainforest adventure, ecological discovery, world-renowned surfing or secluded white-sand beaches, Costa Rica offers up the best Central America has to offer. Book your trip today.
