1. Nature abounds
Costa Rica is something of a rich, tropical paradise, with more biodiversity in the country than in the entirety of Europe and the United States of America.
To the east of the country lies the Caribbean Sea and to the west is the Pacific Ocean. Costa Rica has some of the highest mountains in Central America, fourteen known volcanoes (six of which have been active in the last 75 years), hundreds of gorgeous beaches and several unspoiled National Parks.
Costa Rica’s National Parks cover more than 25% of the country and encompass lush, green rainforests, dry forests, cloud forests, wetlands and marine areas. As well as the National Parks, there are also many private nature reserves that aim to protect the fertile habitat and biodiversity of the country.
2. Outdoors adventures
