COSTA RICA

ABOUT COSTA RICA
A country full of lush rainforests accompanied by clear sandy beaches, Costa Rica is an absolute must-visit if you are looking to travel to Central America. My family and I visited in the summertime, staying partially in La Fortuna in the mountainous region and in Tamarindo on the western coast. Costa Rica is an adventure of a lifetime. With tropical rainforest where you can have countless adventures ziplining and hiking and gorgeous ocean coastlines there is little left to be desired in this country.

Travel Tips - Costa Rica
Lodging
There are many different lodging options you can choose from for your Costa Rican adventures. I would recommend looking at Hostel World, Expedia, Airbnb, and or Vrbo for accommodations.
Transportation
There are many different ways you can get around Costa Rica, including renting a car! We decided to skip the taxis and busses and just rent a large minivan (sort of thing) for our family friend vacation. This was a great way to get around and travel between regions, just ensure that you are aware of all the local driving laws so that you don’t run into unwelcome legal surprises.
Activities
There is no shortage of incredible things to do in Costa Rica but here are some of our favorites:
-
Zipline through lush forest with Sky Adventures
-
Go scuba diving off the coast of Tamarindo
-
Race on 4-wheelers through rural towns to the beach
