Costa Rica
Two coasts, cloud forest and surf
Costa Rica, two coasts and a cloud forest — Pura Vida by light aircraft.
The family adventure week we recommend most. Arenal for the volcano and the hot springs (Nayara), Manuel Antonio or Uvita for the Pacific beach close, Monteverde for the cloud forest and the zip lines.
Easy direct flights, English-speaking guides, and a country that takes its conservation as seriously as its surf.
A year in Costa Rica
Peak season, perfect weather, full resort calendar.
Lush rainforest, fewer guests, soft rates.
Season turns dry, ideal Thanksgiving weeks.
Always warm — choose the coast by season.
