Description

It was only two decades ago that the traveling public "discovered" Costa Rica. As nature-based tourism grew in popularity during the 1990’s, more and more travelers began to experience the pristine natural areas protected by Costa Rica’s renowned conservation efforts. They explored the rain forests, cloud forests, highland paramos and coastal mangroves. No one else was in sight when they swam in the warm, tropical waters of isolated beaches, where forests grew right down to the golden sand.

A special sense of wonder filled each of these visitors as they watched giant sea turtles digging their nest in the sand under a dark tropical sky. Adventurers ran exciting white-water rivers, stared into the crater of an active volcano, descended into underground caverns, leisurely visited a coffee plantation, went ballooning over the forest and took scuba diving lessons. Everyone wished they’d taken a longer vacation, but they hadn’t expected so much to see and do in such a small country.
