Costa Rica Holidays

Natural wonders of Costa Rica

A nature lovers’ paradise, Costa Rica holidays are a unique destination. Sitting proudly between the Caribbean and the Pacific, its topography is lined with volcanoes and it has an extraordinarily diverse climate and ecosystem - particularly when it comes to tropical forest. This combined with an unusually well-developed sense of environmental consciousness, makes holidays to Costa Rica a wonderful theatre in which to observe tropical nature at its best. National parks, wildlife refuges and private reserves protect over 25 per cent of the country and the richness of its colourful bird population alone is enough to stir enthusiasm in even the least interested of twitchers! 

For outdoor enthusiasts, adventure holidays to Costa Rica are a natural choice. From rafting the Pacuare River, to climbing to the summit of the smoking Irazu Volcano to horse riding and taking a canopy tour in Monteverde National Park, it is a country designed to explore! Hiking in rainforest reveals further natural wonders as you look out for wildlife and no Costa Rica holidays would be complete without visiting Tortuguero National Park, home of 13 of the country’s 16 endangered mammal species and an area famed as a natural turtle hatchery.
