No matter where you travel to in Costa Rica you will find yourself immersed in la “Pura Vida”, which translates to the “Pure Life”. In Costa Rica, this takes on a life of it’s own and represents a stress-free lifestyle centered on friends, family and the gifts of nature. To further compliment this way of living, Costa Rica is a global leader in sustainability & eco-tourism and aims to become carbon -free by 2050. From local cuisine to artisan crafts, customs, celebrations, sustainability is embedded deeply in the culture and traditions of Costa Ricans. And once bitten by the charms of Costa Rica, you will long to return and get back to the Pura Vida!
Straddling the Meso-American isthmus between North and South America, this little nation’s magnificent biodiversity is justifiably and undeniably Costa Rica’s main attraction. The combination of mountains, plains & plateaus, the influence of ocean currents and sea breezes gives Costa Rica a temperate tropical climate. Both the Pacific and the Caribbean coastlines are warm enough year round to enjoy a host of water activities; you can even visit and enjoy both coasts on the same day – a must do and bucket-list item for all surfers!
There’s an endless choice of nature activities, lodges, and experiences to be had. Join a guided night tour of the jungle to spy the elusive jaguar. Volunteer to help sea turtle hatchlings make it to the waves or release treacle-slo sloth bay into the canopy. And let’s not forget the cities and villages that are equally enticing. San José, has carved out it’s place as Central America’s hippest city, with amazing craft breweries, world-class museums, and an amazingly lively, and unforgettable food scene. If you head west to Liberia, you will find a laid back gateway to Costa Rica’s sabanero (cowboy) embracing the Tico (what Costa Ricans call themselves) gospel of Pura Vida with beach yoga retreats all along the Nicoya Peninsula, you will find your zen, can clear your mind and reset yourself. Head south to fun-loving Pavones which is a surfers paradise. You will also find coffee-estate-strewen highlands with an alluring blend of white sands, turquoise waters, indigenous culture, and Jamaican cuisine whilst enjoying the beautiful Caribbean coast.
