Guanacaste in northern Costa Rica encompasses both coastal and interior areas, arid plains, and lush forests, mountains, golden beaches and estuaries teeming with life. Some of the largest and most beautiful nature reserves are located here, as well as many fine beachfront resorts offering fishing, scuba diving, windsurfing and golf.
The active Arenal Volcano and Tabacon Hot Springs are a short drive from the coast. The bustle of the capital, San Jose, is only a three-hour drive along the highway.
Half of the population lives in San Jose, which offers an interesting selection of museums, shops and restaurants. In addition to San Jose, Southern Costa Rica also offers the popular beach destination of Jaco Beach/Puntarenas areas with family-oriented hotels, excellent beaches and a choice of activities including horseback riding, surfing and golf.
Costa Rica has something for beach lovers and nature lovers alike!
