Costa Rica

With the name Costa Rica meaning the rich coast, it certainly lives up to its name by having some of the best surf destinations in the world.

Unpaved roads and hidden paradises have kept these magnificent beaches from becoming overcrowded and you will have a feeling as you are entering a secret paradise. Demarcated by Nicaragua in the north and Panama in the south, Costa Rica hugs the Caribbean Sea in the east and the Pacific Ocean in the west. A high plateau divides the American cordilleras in the center, bordered by low coastal lands in the east and the west.
More of half of the population lives in this plain, with volcanic fertile soil. Mangroves, marshlands, and sandy beaches characterize the Caribbean coast, 212 kilometers long. More cut and rocky, the Pacific coast spreads out 1,016 kilometers, dotted by gulfs and peninsulas. Costa Rica is home to a rich variety of plants and animals. Over 840 species of birds have been identified in Costa Rica.
As is the case in much of Central America, the avian species in Costa Rica are a mix of North and South American species. The country's abundant fruit trees, many of which bear fruit all year round, are hugely important to the birds, some of them survive on diets that consist only of one or two types of fruit. Furthermore, Pura Vida is the most recognizable phrase attached to Costa Ricans. It reflects the inhabitant's positive view of life. Literally translated, the expression means pure life and denotes a simple life, free of stress, a positive, relaxed feeling.
