Costa Rica Tourist Guide

Sailing off the coast of Costa Rica offers a chance to explore
remote parts of the country that are not easily accessible to those
traveling by land. Whether you are cruising in a small ship or a
small yacht, a coastal cruise will highlight the beauty of this
pristine region. Along the coastlines, especially along the
Caribbean, there are numerous tranquil areas in which to moor your
boat and enjoy nature, snorkeling amongst natural beauty of the
world underwater, or simply watching the wildlife.
Costa Rica is Central America's most popular tourist
destination, particularly for travelers looking to experience
ecotourism at its finest. The country boasts a myriad of natural
wonders, including active volcanoes, dense rainforests and exotic
wildlife. Increasingly, travelers are using sailing as an
ecological and relaxing way to experience this environment, with
cruises available on both the Pacific Ocean and Caribbean Sea.
Offshore, the lush tropical islands are treasure troves of exotic
wildlife and spectacular rainforest.
It does not take long to understand why the country is such a
wonder for those travelers who want to see nature at its finest.
The Volcano Irazu National Park displays the country's largest
volcano; the La Paz Waterfall Gardens features five magnificent
waterfalls; and here you can also visit the Butterfly Observatory -
home to some of the most splendid species of butterflies in the
world. And of course, Costa Rica's fertile volcanic soil also
produces some of the world's finest coffee.
