   Costa Rica Travel Information

Costa Rica is divided into seven provinces.  Located in the central valley is San Jose, one of the most diverse provinces in Costa Rica. San Jose is an excellent base for exploring the beautiful Central Valley and the surrounding mountains.   Arenal and the town of La Fortuna, in the Northern Plains area of Costa Rica are hotspots for adventure activities. Wildlife enthusiasts and thrill seekers will love exploring the Manuel Antonio National Park, zip lining above the Monteverde Cloud Forest, or hiking through the Arenal Volcano.  If you come for sun and surf, head out to Jaco, Guanacaste or the Nicoya Peninsula.   The village of Puerto Viegjo de Talamanca in the Limon province on the Caribbean Coast comes alive at night with reggae music, fun bars and a wild nightlife. The town is perfect for surfers coming to Cocles Beach, and adventure and nature seekers wanting to explore the nearby rainforests.

Another beautiful city to visit in Costa Rica is Liberia. It’s the largest city of the northwestern province of Guanacaste.  As one of Costa Rica's oldest cities, Liberia is rich in colonial history and depicts its own traditions. Liberia also has an airport that enables travelers a more efficient way to get to this side of the country.  Just west of Liberia is the alluring Peninsula Papagayo region. A popular eco-destination for travelers with acres of national parks, rainforests, the Borinquen hot springs, adventure parks and the fun beach towns of Tamarindo and Matapalo. From the cultural capital of San Jose to the country's stunning national parks and fun beach towns, Costa Rica will entice you to return.  

   Top Things To Do In Costa Rica  

San Jose is Costa Rica’s largest and fastest growing city. You will find plenty of beautiful landmarks as you enjoy the colonial-era and art deco architecture and Costa Rican culture while walking through Plaza de la Culture.  In the last decade, San Jose has revived into a phenomenal culinary and art scene.  Be sure to visit the eclectic Escazu neighborhood to enjoy some of Costa Rica’s finest restaurants.  An hour drive from San Jose is the beautiful La Paz Waterfall Gardens, animal sanctuary and butterfly observatory. Wildlife enthusiasts and adventure seekers will love exploring the Manuel Antonio National Park, zip lining above the Monteverde Cloud Forest, unwinding at Tabacon Hot Springs or hiking through the Arenal Volcano. 

Liberia is also a great gateway to visit many of Costa Rica's famous rainforests, stunning tropical beaches and active volcanoes. It opens many doors for the outdoor enthusiast as well as adventure tourism.  Just west of Liberia is the alluring Peninsula Papagayo region. The Rincon de la Vieja National Park, and the Santa Rosa National Park are perfect hot spots for bird watching, hiking and hot springs, and some of the best surfing in Central America. Travelers wanting to get off the beaten path should opt for a cruise around the Gulf of Nicoya, on the Nicoya Peninsula on the Northern Pacific Coast of Costa Rica.
