Costa Rica isn't a real place, you sheep. Much like Australia or birds, it's just something made up by the government to spy on you.

A coworker of mine went a few months ago. She said it was very pretty there but the roads are terrible.

E: depending on what you want to do there are other Central American countries.
Belize, for example example. Belize kicks all sorts of rear end.

Yeah I went for 2 week vacation a while ago

Probably wouldn't recommend tbh

There are more interesting places and there are prettier places. The beach was nice but you can go to like, the Bahamas and get the same thing a lot closer and cheaper

edit: also yeah 2nding that the roads are terrible and spending like 4 hours back and forth from San Jose getting to the beaches on insanely bumpy dirt and gravel roads was awful

:barf::sweep::zoid:



Mrs. Hurley and I went there for our honeymoon for like 10 days it was awesome. We stayed in three different areas. One was Tortuguero on the Caribbean side which is on a canal in the jungle where we did some nature trips on a boat and saw a ton of cool wildlife. Then we went to Aranal where there is a huge active volcano and hot volcanic streams. Then we stayed the last few days at a big resort on the Pacific side, I forget the name. Lovely beach and we went horseback riding.

Yeah the roads are bad but you see cool stuff. People there love to point out animals to tourists. One guy who was driving us stopped the car so we could see a family of spider monkeys in some trees. At a rest stop a random local guy ran up to us excitedly to point up in a tree where a sloth was chilling. Another lady pointed out a little green (non venomous) snake.

Snakes though, watch out. There be vipers. And something called bullet ants that I did not want to encounter.

People will definitely try to get you on a zip line. Personally I don’t get it, I wanted to walk slowly and quietly through the forest to see some frogs and birds and flowers and stuff not whizzing through the air like a big loud jerk.

Until the lions have their own historians, the history of the hunt will always glorify the hunter.
I went, it's dope. Don't go to Nicaragua while you're there, though. It's the most depressing place I've ever been.

Went to Costa Rica with friends in 2019, and it was a truly lovely trip. We also did the three-location thing, hitting Arenal to see the volcano and luxuriate at the Tabacon Resort (which is built right into the volcanically-heated springs), Monteverde to see the rain forest and see a coffee/chocolate farm, and near Manuel Antonio to stay at a bomb-rear end villa in the middle of a nature preserve that also had food and bar service on the beach. Got to see lots of sloths, go scuba diving/snorkeling in pristine waters with dolphins and whales, and have capuchin monkeys try to see if they could sneak in to get our groceries:



Pretty much everyone in the group agreed that if we were to do this again, we would just spend the whole week+ in Manuel Antonio next time rather than split things up.

You definitely want to have a driver arranged to get you from the airport in San José to your destination (and from any one town to another), because yeah the roads are poo poo. It'll take at least 4 hours to get from one city/area to another. Pacific side of the country is cooler than the gulf side. It's not expensive, but it's also not super-cheap either.

That is the only thing I know about Costa Rica.

I just did 10 days in Manuel Antonio getting married. Rented a big staffed house, used our wedding as an opportunity to pressure our families into going on the big group vacation they have talked about for years but clearly have no intention of planning.
It was nice would reccomend.
