For a relatively small country, Costa Rica has an unusually
diverse range of eco-systems to explore and adventurous
activities to try. You'll visit rugged wilderness preserves and
sleepy beach towns, spectacular orchid gardens and mineral hot
springs at the foot of a recently-active volcano. There are
adventures here for all ages and abilities: swooping from
treetop platform to treetop platform on a canopy tour, taking a
dip in a jungle swimming hole, spotting playful spider monkeys
as you hike through lush foliage, windsurfing on Lake Arenal,
or watching endangered sea turtles nest on the beach.
