In terms of travel, Costa Rica is the gem of Central America. The country's natural attractions, wildlife, emphasis on conservation, and well-developed tourism infrastructure have earned it world renown. In addition to its beautiful forests and ecotourism possibilities, Costa Rica boasts some of the region's best beaches.
San Jose, besides being the jumping off point for almost everywhere, is worth at least a few days. From the cosmopolitan capital, most travelers choose to experience several of Costa Rica's magnificent National Parks, where you can walk in the tree tops on suspension bridges, hike, and watch volcanic eruptions. Among the nation's plethora of parks and reserves are Parque Nacional Santa Rosa, Costa Rica's oldest, Parque Nacional Volcn Iraz, a favorite excursion from Cartago, and Parque Nacional Manuel Antonio on the coast.
After appreciating nature and getting your exercise in, it's highly recommended you relax at the appealing mix of resorts and deserted beaches along the country's Pacific coast.
