COSTA RICA VACATIONS

SIMPLY PURA VIDA!

Costa Rica vacations are…well…Pura Vida.

Just a couple of hours from the States. A little country with big fun, grand discoveries and warm, beautiful, smiling people.

A proud democracy.

Only the size of Vermont and New Hampshire put together lies a verdant land teeming with life.

Vacations in Costa Rica offer wonderful chances at discovery, whether you want to find waterfalls, photograph the exotic quetzal, or simply relax.

And, the only place in the world where you can stand atop a volcano and see the Pacific Ocean and the Atlantic Caribbean at the same time is Costa Rica.

Or climb the second highest peak in Central America, look at five volcanoes AND the Pacific and Caribbean simultaneously.

But you can only do this on a Costa Rica vacation.

You can even discover a lost city.

A city that flourished for 2,500 years and mysteriously vanished about the time Columbus arrived.

You’ve Heard About Costa Rica Beaches, Haven’t You?

And I’ve walked many, many truly spectacular beaches in Alaska, completely unspoiled but. . . bit too chilly (OK, way too cold) for swimming or sun-bathing. And really a long way from anywhere.

If you like, there’s the Caribbean. Columbus called it the “rich coast.” Mile-after-mile of beaches with few tourists, warm waters, and a very special Caribbean ambience.

Or, if you prefer a Costa Rica vacation along the North Pacific “gold coast” with its magnificent hotels and resorts, there are endless miles of beaches to choose from.

You can choose from world-famous beaches to little-known ones that Costa Ricans prefer. Brown sand beaches, white sand beaches.

Year-round. You choose.

Fish for a world record. Surf, swim, hang-glide, or simply kick back.

So, start planning that trip to Costa Rica. Check out some spectacular
