"Paul2001's Costa Rica Page" a Costa Rica Travel Page by Paul2001

For those that have yet to visit the Earth's ever decreasing rain forest Costa Rica is the perfect introduction. It is easy and relatively inexpensive to reach from most place in Europe and North America. The country also has an established and affordable tourist structure. Furthermore besides offering an excellent opportunity to visit the rain forest, Costa Rica has superb beaches where you can relax for a few days. I met whole families coming down to Costa Rica for beach vacations and a little hiking in the rain forest on the side. Also Costa Rica has now even become a major destination for surfers because of the fantastic waves on the Pacific coast. I think with such a combination of fascinating things to see and to do that Costa Rica is an excellent destination that the whole family can enjoy.
