Costa rica

Sun-splashed coastline and roaring rivers. Active volcanoes and coffee plant-covered hillsides. There's a reason why Costa Rica is one of Central America's most popular destinations. Spot endangered animals in a rainforest; unwind in a hot springs spa; hike to volcanic craters; battle the power of white water; or just relax on a beautiful beach all in a country that protects more than 5% of the world's biodiversity: over 900 bird species, more than 200 species of mammals, and thousands of types of butterflies.
