Ahhhh, Costa Rica. Whether you are an adventure seeker or looking to relax on a sandy beach, Costa Rica has got you covered. About the size of West Virginia, the country is known for its beaches, volcanoes, and immense biodiversity. In fact, about a quarter of Costa Rica is made up of protected jungle, rich with wildlife. Divided into seven provinces, the country’s landscape can change from tropical beach to a cloud forest-volcano within an hour or two drive. This means you can do and see as much or as little as you want on your Costa Rican vacation! On top of all that, Costa Rica is consistently ranked as one of the “Happiest Countries” in the World…Pura Vida!
