Beschreibung

Flanked by two oceans and host to a dozen microclimates, Costa Rica is a land of rare and varied beauty. Bask in natural hot springs at the foot of the majestic Arenal Volcano, hike through the Monteverde Cloud Forest, sip coffee on a plantation and then watch a Pacific sunset with the sand between your toes. Ah, pura vida . . . . In Bradt's Costa Rica, local resident Larissa Banting takes you beyond the tourist haunts to introduce the beating heart of the country. Whatever your passions, this Central American paradise has something for you. *Accommodations: from eco-lodges to home stays *Canopy tours and turtle watching *Detailed wildlife coverage: from parrots to peccaries *White-water rafting, sailing and windsurfing *New areas open to tourism *Tico slang, culture and festivals
