You Just Have To Experience Costa Rica

Do you feel like your tired and worn out. Don't you feel like you need a special treat. Well let me share a secret or two with you. There is a place that you can go to when your feeling all tired and worn out and after a week or so you'll be filling all better.

The place I'm talking about is Costa Rica. Have you ever been to Costa Rica? Have you ever even checked out Costa Rica? Well let me share a few things about Costa Rica with you. One of the best kept secrets of Costa Rica is the town of Cahuita and the Cahuita National Park located on the southern Caribbean Coast in the Costa Rica Province of Limon Province. The National Park is connected to the small city of Cahuita Costa Rica. You'll find Raccoons, White Nosed Coati's, Mantled Howler Monkeys, White Headed Capuchin Monkeys, Colorful Tree Frogs, Snakes, Lizards and all kinds of Tropical Birds. In the waters around Costa Rica you'll see a abundance of Dolphins and lots of Sea Turtles.

The beaches in the National Park and around the small city of Cahuita Costa Rica are largely undeveloped and this entire area is a nesting area for sea turtles. The area is home to the Coralline Reefs and they are very popular with divers. You can go diving and snorkel in the protected marine areas and here you will see more fish than any where else in the world.

There are at least 35 species of coral in the reef, more than 150 species of fish and all kinds of molluscs and crustaceans. If you want to visit and snorkel or dive in one of the most beautiful places in the world you just have to visit the Coralline Reefs. You can find yourself swimming with schools of big fish or watching a beautiful star fish slowly move across the ocean floor. A lot of divers and snorkelers are amazed that they can see a average of 80 feet under water and the schools of tropical fish are guaranteed to amaze you. You can book a dive vacation with your local travel agent or you can arrange for wonderful full or half day trips once you are in Cahuita Costa Rica.

This area is so beautiful with so much to see that you'll want to be sure to bring your digital camera and plenty of memory cards for it. As you can see from the photos of Costa Rica on this Hub Page you'll have an opportunity to take all kinds of wonderful photos of Costa Rica to share with all those tired and worn out people when you get back home. Cahuita National Park is truly one of the most amazing places on earth and you just have to visit there at least once in your life.

You just make a donation to enter the park and you can camp safely for one night on Black Beach. You can stay at the Atlantida which has plenty of rooms for rent and one of the most helpful and friendliest staffs in the area. Always keep in mind that if you find a beach with red flags flying don't swim there. Also you want to remember that your near the equator and it will get day light around 6 A.M. each morning and it will get dark each night around 6 P.M. You will find about 12 hours of daylight and 12 hours of dark about every day of the year. So when your out in the jungle exploring keep in mind that its going to get dark by 6 P.M. and you don't want to be out in the jungle after dark.

After you visit Cahuita and Cahuita National Park you may even find yourself thinking of moving to Costa Rica. A lot of Americans retire here.

Costa Rica borders both the Pacific Ocean and the Caribbean and as its so near the equator its always warm here. Costa Rica has some of the most beautiful beaches in the world and lush tropical rain forests filled with all kinds of wildlife.

You'll also find volcanoes, mangrove swamps, coral reefs, and some of the best white water rafting in the world. Costa Rica is also all about nature and you'll find everything here from tree sloths to jaguars. And one of the really wonderful things about Costa Rica is that most of it is unspoiled and waiting for you to visit and explore. If you've not yet explored the best vacation in the world Costa Rica is waiting for you.

Costa Rica though most people don't know it yet has some of the best white water rafting rivers in the world. And going white water rafting in Costa Rica is like no other place in the world. The jungles you'll be traveling through on your way down the rivers are filled with all kinds of tropical wildlife and you never know what you'll see around the next corner.

You could spend the rest of your life visiting the beaches of Costa Rica and still yet not see all the beautiful unspoiled beaches of Costa Rica. As hard as it may be to believe there are plenty of beaches in Costa Rica where you can walk for miles and see very few people.

Have you ever been wind surfing. Or para gliding. Both are activities that you can take part in all over Costa Rica. People come from all over the world to go wind surfing off the beaches of Costa Rica. And there are several locations around Costa Rica where you can take a aerial adventure by riding a zip line through the tops of the rain forest. Have I got you excited and wanting to visit Costa Rica yet. I guarantee you that you'll have the adventure of a life time. There is nothing like riding a sling chair down a zip line across the top of a rain forest. Its one thing I did in Costa Rica that I won't ever forget and I can't wait to go back and do it again.

If you go fishing in Costa Rica fishing any where else will never be the same for you again. You can catch more fish in Costa Rica than any where else in the world. And you can fish not only in the ocean and rivers of Costa Rica but also in Lake Arenal where you'll find some of the best fresh water fishing in the world.

And I bet after you visit Costa Rica that no other vacation will ever be able to measure up to what Costa Rica has to offer so before you know it you'll be wanting to visit Costa Rica again and again. Have you ever been to Costa Rica? If so tell us all about your Costa Rica adventure below in the comment section.

Costa Rica is bordered on the north by Nicaragua and on the southeast by Panama. On one side you'll find the Caribbean Sea and on the other side is the Pacific Ocean. You'll find rain forests and what I think are the most beautiful beaches in the world. If you look at the photos of the beaches of Costa Rica on this Hub Page I think you'll agree with me that they are the most beautiful beaches in the world.

Playa Samara is known as Costa Rica's hidden tropical paradise on the Pacific Ocean. You'll find plenty of white sandy beaches, hidden coves, and gentle waters that you can really enjoy. In this area you'll find all kinds of hotels, motels, and great places to eat. You'll also find that your right in the middle of a thriving farming and fishing community. If you love wonderful fresh seafood you want to be sure to check out what the local restaurants and cafes have to offer you here. You'll also find all kinds of bars and some of these bars are really quite unique. So be sure to check them all out.

Did you know that if you wanted to that you really could go on the adventure of a life time by driving down to Costa Rica from your home in the United States. The Pan American Highway goes all the way but you will want a sturdy vehicle like a SUV or Jeep if your going to take this adventure.

You can also take a bus all the way down from Mexico to Costa Rica and beyond but if your going to take this method of travel your going to want to allow yourself plenty of time to travel because your going to be on the adventure of a life time.

But you don't have to drive down or travel by bus. You can fly to most of Costa Rica's larger cities by airplane from the United States and you can rent a vehicle once your in Costa Rica. If you do rent a car in Costa Rica take all the insurance that is offered and you should bring your U.S. pass port, drivers license, and obtain a international drivers permit before you leave home. I would advise anyone to only travel by private vehicle only in the day time. You will find people in Costa Rica very helpful but in the more remote areas they will only speak Spanish. Also use common sense. Would you go down to the dark end of the town back home in the United States. No you wouldn't so don't do it here either. Also as tempting as it may be don't buy illegal drugs. If you do you may find yourself in trouble with the local police and you may be in Costa Rica a lot longer than you planned. Keep in mind that people here make very little money. The person who sold you the marijuana may 10 minutes later sell that information to the local police. So you are warned.

I would have to say that Costa Rica is truly the perfect vacation spot. No matter what you want to do you probably can do it in Costa Rica. The two things I would strongly suggest everyone to do is to go on a zip line ride through the tree tops of a rain forest and go on a white water rafting adventure down the rivers of Costa Rica.

You really could spend the rest of your life visiting the beaches of Costa Rica and never see them all. If you've never swum with dolphins try it out while your in Costa Rica. On the Pacific Ocean side of Costa Rica you can see more sea turtles than any where else in the world.

So what ever you do be sure to bring your digital camera and plenty of memory cards with you so you can take plenty of photos to share with all those people back home. As you travel around Costa Rica I bet you'll be amazed at all the wonderful opportunites you'll have to take some of the best photos ever.
