AN IMPORTANT NOTE
The world is a dynamic place. Hotels change ownership, restaurants hike their prices, museums alter their opening hours, and buses and trains change their routings. And all of this can occur in the several months after our authors have visited, inspected, and written about these hotels, restaurants, museums, and transportation services. Though we have made valiant efforts to keep all our information fresh and up-to-date, some few changes can inevitably occur in the periods before a revised edition of this guidebook is published. So please bear with us if a tiny number of the details in this book have changed. Please also note that we have no responsibility or liability for any inaccuracy or errors or omissions, or for inconvenience, loss, damage, or expenses suffered by anyone as a result of assertions in this guide.

C osta Rica continues to be one of the hottest vacation and adventure-travel destinations in Latin America, and for good reason. The country is rich in natural wonders and abundant biodiversity. Costa Rica boasts a wealth of unsullied beaches for sunbathing and surfing, lush jungle rivers for rafting and kayaking, and spectacular cloud forests and rainforests with many opportunities for bird-watching, wildlife viewing, and hiking. In addition to the emblematic eco- and adventure-tourism offerings, you will also find luxury resorts and golf courses, plush spas, and some spectacular boutique hotels and eco-friendly lodges. In this chapter, youll find the very best of what this unique country has to offer.
Costa Ricas best Authentic Experiences
Taking a Night Tour in a Tropical Forest: Most neotropical forest dwellers are nocturnal, so nighttime tours are offered at rainforest and cloud-forest destinations throughout the country. Some of the better spots for night tours are Monteverde ().
Soaking in a Volcanic Hot Spring: Costa Ricas volcanoes have blessed the country with a host of natural hot springs. From the opulent grandeur of Tabacn Grand Spa Thermal Resort (), mineral-rich, naturally heated waters are waiting to soothe what ails you.
Spotting a Resplendent Quetzal: The iridescent colors and long, flowing tail feathers of this aptly named bird are breathtaking. This rare species can still be regularly sighted in the Monteverde Cloud Forest Biological Reserve ().
Meeting Monkeys: Costa Ricas rain- and cloud forests are home to four species of New World monkeyshowler, capuchin, squirrel, and spider. Your odds of seeing one or more are very good if you visit Cahuita ().

Help a Hatchling Reach the Sea: During various months throughout the year, multiple species of sea turtles arrive on beaches on both coasts of Costa Rica to lay their eggs. After hatching, the baby turtles face enormous odds in reaching the sea in such places as Las Baulas National Marine (), although volunteers around the country help ensure that they do. See chapter 5, The Best Special-Interest Trips.
Vamos a la Feria: Usually on Saturdays, a vast network of rural farmers markets comes alive in every part of Costa Rica. Theres a brilliant display of colorful fruits and vegetables, local foods, and often live music. Some of the more interesting ferias occur in Puerto Viejo de Talamanca, Gupiles, and San Joss Feria Verde de Aranjuez.

Glimpsing a Big Cat: Seeing jaguars, pumas, ocelots, and other elusive felines in the wild are the high points for many naturalists, and the fact they are present in many areas of Costa Rica is a testament to the countrys biodiversity. While odds are still slim, youll up your chances by visiting national parks, including Piedras Blancas ().
