Featured Destinations

Puerto Viejo de Talamanca

Puerto Viejo de Talamanca

This small Caribbean coastal town is a unique melting pot of Afro-Caribbean descendants, European expats and indigenous Costa Rican tribes. The town is bounded by rainforest, jungle, banana plantation, and scenic rivers that leads to the sea. While its two National Parks (Cahuita and Manzanillo) attracts the most avid of backpackers, its scaled waves lures out the large surfer community. So if you're craving global fusion gastronomy, scenic nature, array of adventures, a little party and a lot of chill - Puerto Viejo is where you want to explore.
Pacuare River

Pacuare River


The Pacuare River is a designated 'Wild and Scenic' river; winding exotically through 25,000 acres of protected rain forest before falling into the Talamanca Mountain Range, ravines and rocks have made this river exquisite for white water rafting (class III-V). A myriad of wildlife calls the forest home: jaguars, ocelots, monkeys, and more. The Pacuare snakes along the northern region of Central America's key national parks and wildlife areas. Turquoise waters, lush green vegetation along rocky river banks and inspiring waterfalls shape the Pacuare River landscape into a nature lover's dream.

La Fortuna

La Fortuna

La Fortuna is near Costa Rica's active volcano, Volcan Arenal. Driving into the park, plumes of smoke belching out of the volcano become ominiously closer. Arenal has been nearly contastantly active and attracts visitors from around the world. Experiencing first hand nature's awesome power is a humbling sight. Take a night trip to the volcano and see bright red lava spew forth. Tabacon Resort Hot Springs, located in Arenal, featuring stunning views of Arenal Volcano and offering the pleasurable experience of bathing in the volcano's byproduct - hot springs. Constant energy of Arenal volcano, warmth of flowing thermo mineral rivers and surrounding tropical rain forest provide a supreme experience. Let the hot water of a spectacular waterfall massage your neck and shoulders. Enjoy a large main pool with a swim-up bar, or other smaller pools hidden in the gardens with built-in lounges, little waterfalls, and cozy tubs. Spend a steamy afternoon here, or head to Iskandria Spa for a volcanic body wrap, using a mixture of ash as a skin mask.
Monteverde

Monteverde

The Monteverde rainforest area, which comprises ten towns with 8,000 people, is situated on the Continental Divide at an elevation of 5,600 feet. A walk through a Costa Rica Monteverde cloud forest reveals a lush green garden of mosses, ferns, flowers and epiphytes growing thickly on every tree. Clouds drift in and settle among the slopes, giving the continuous moisture required for such exuberant plant growth. Dangling roots and vines sweep across the trails. The air is rich with the sounds of birds and the occasional scurrying of small mammals on the forest floor. In the distance a howler monkey roars.
