Costa Rica lies in the heart-beat of Central America, embraced by Nicaragua and Panama, and caressed by the Caribbean Sea and Pacific Ocean's gentle waves. San José, the pulsating capital city, serves as a gateway to its rich history, defined by a blend of indigenous roots and Spanish influences which are echoed in the country's culture and architectural tapestry.

Gaining independence from Spain in 1821, Costa Rica has continually strived towards achieving a peaceful and prosperous society, known for its exceptional democratic governance and human development levels. A commitment to education is woven into the country's fabric, propelling its evolution from an agricultural background towards more diverse sectors, including eco-tourism, finance, and pharmaceuticals.

The indigenous influence might be considered minimal, but Costa Rica's environment tells a different story. Home to a treasure trove of national parks bursting with biodiversity, Costa Rica is globally recognised for its commitment to conservation and sustainability. Every moment immersed in its natural beauty, from the unique wildlife inhabiting the renowned Corcovado National Park to the warm welcoming waves of the coasts, is a testament to the country's proud eco-friendly ethos.

When to visit Costa Rica

When it comes to planning your visit to Costa Rica, it is essential to match the journey to the rhythm of your desires - and nature. Family visits are best planned around school holidays to enjoy the country's natural wonders without interfering with those pesky academic commitments. Do not miss opportunity to witness the majestic displays of turtles and whales at certain times of the year for an unforgettable wildlife encounter.

Embrace Costa Rica's dual-coast characteristics and bask in the contrasting atmospheric conditions the Pacific and Caribbean coasts offer. Champion adventuresome hiking sojourns across the rainforests, volcanic trails and cloud-kissed mountains in renowned national parks. To further enrich your Costa Rican experience, partake in volunteer activities at wildlife rescue centres and turtle conservation projects.
