1 COSTA RICA
BEST FOR: NATURE LOVERS
Between the waters of the Caribbean and the Pacific, Costa Rica is a nature lover’s dream. Turtles nest on the soft sand beaches, jaguars prowl the dense, lowland jungle and around 850 species of technicolour birds serenade the rainforest canopies with song.
Take a slow boat ride through the winding waterways of the Tortuguero National Park, spot nocturnal creatures on a night walk through the Monteverde cloud forest, or climb the slopes of the now-dormant Arenal Volcano to hear the whisper of the wind on the lava fields.
