There are very few
places in the world that can offer the incredible diversity of
scenery, climate and vacation pleasures that Costa Rica provides.
Variety is what makes
Costa Rica such an exciting place to visit. Want to stroll down a palm-lined
beach in the heat of the morning sun? Paddle down a whitewater river lined
with such gorgeous scenery that you can hardly keep your eyes on the rapids?
Focus your binoculars on such spectacular birds as the toucan and scarlet
macaw? Stand in awe at the foot of a volcano as it blasts incandescent
boulders hundreds of feet into the sky? Costa Rica is the place where you
can do all of the above and more! No matter which of the country's abundant
attractions hold the interest of the visitor, its natural beauty and
friendly citizens are sure to make any stay in Costa Rica an unforgettable
one.
