Costa Rica...
There are very few places in the world that can offer such an incredible diversity of scenery, climate and vacation pleasures as Costa Rica does. Costa Rica, a small country covering only 19,560 square miles, 0.03 percent of the Earth´s surface, contains an astonishing amount of plants and animal life, approximately 6 percent of the world’s biodiversity. This abundance of wildlife is partly due the country’s geographical position on a land bridge
between North America & South America, as well as its environmental protection policies.
Packed within its borders, however, are more than a dozen volcanoes, dry savannas, tropical dry and lush rain forests, cool cloud forests, several mountain ranges, countless streams and rivers and over 1,200 kilometers (755 miles) of coastline stretched along two oceans. Nearly a quarter of Costa Rica’s territory is protected in a world-renowned system of national parks, biological reserves, wildlife refuges and other protected areas.
Variety is what makes Costa Rica such an exciting place to visit. 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.
