Costa Rica as a Destination
Costa Rica’s territory stretches 200 miles from the Pacific Ocean to the Caribbean Sea, bordered by Nicaragua to the north and Panama to the south. Covering an area of 51,000 square kilometers, Costa Rica offers an astonishing diversity of landscapes and microclimates that can be explored in a single day. True to its translated name, the Rich Coast, Costa Rica is a haven for sun-seekers, adventurers, nature enthusiasts, wellness seekers, and culture aficionados alike.
Our greatest pride lies in our people. Ticos are known for being warm, kind, genuine, and welcoming to everyone, and we believe you’ll feel at home here.
Since the late 1980s, as more and more people discovered Costa Rica’s incredible natural beauty, a vast network of services has grown in response. Today, our experienced tourism industry offers international visitors a wide range of accommodations—from simple homestays in the rural countryside to boutique inns and luxury 5-star hotels belonging to renowned international chains.
Costa Rica boasts excellent public infrastructure, and transportation options range from simple ox-carts (used for short distances at certain attractions) to a variety of modern vehicles. Activities available include nature hikes, aerial tramways, canopy tours, saltwater sport fishing, bird watching, horseback riding, white water rafting, kayaking, swimming, surfing, mountain biking, snorkeling, scuba diving, nature photography, wellness experiences, or simply sunbathing on warm, sun-drenched beaches. The list goes on… Costa Rica has a lot to offer!
Beyond its natural allure, Costa Rica has established itself as a leader in sustainable tourism. The country has implemented programs like the Certification for Sustainable Tourism (CST), encouraging businesses to adopt eco-friendly practices. This commitment ensures that tourism development harmoniously coexists with environmental conservation, preserving the nation’s rich biodiversity for future generations.
Costa Rica’s strategic location and compact size make it easy for travelers to experience its varied attractions without extensive travel times. Whether you’re exploring the misty cloud forests of Monteverde, lounging on the pristine beaches of Guanacaste, or observing wildlife in Corcovado National Park, each destination is within reach, allowing for a rich and diverse travel experience.
