For centuries, Costa Rica was a hidden treasure amongst knowledgeable vacationers, backpackers, and biologists. But today, the secret of Costa Rica is out, and the country is now one the hottest destinations in Latin America.

Literacy rates are among the world's highest in Costa Rica, and the country's peaceful democratic government (sans army) makes it an extremely safe place to travel and live.

Many regard Costa Rica as the Hawaii of 20 years ago. With daily temperatures lingering around 70 to 80° F, Costa Rica is a tropical paradise that has managed to avoid over-commercialization by the tourist boom. The country is said to house five percent of the world's animal species and more birds and butterflies than the entire United States. Visit Costa Rica and discover a varied ecosystem of waterfalls, volcanoes, jungles, rivers, and beaches.
