San Jose, Costa Rica – Vacation Packages

By Miss Julie | December 24th, 2006

The “Little Switzerland of Central America” has a strong democracy and the highest standard of living on the continent. Thankfully its conservation program is also one of the most aggressive, for although Costa Rica is a small country, its bio-diversity is staggering. While laying claim oto only .03% of the world’s land mass, the small Central American country contains 6% of the globe’s bio-diversity. In cloud forests resplendent with ferns, palms and dazzling orchids, hummingbirds and butterflies flit from blossom to blossom, and there are more species of birds than in all of North America.

San Jose is the premier province of the country because it contains the capital city and is the most densely populated region. The historic and beautiful Teatro Nacional is a worthy attraction. Climb into the hills and view some of the breathtaking mountain vistas as well. A number of casinos can also captivate your attention – but hopefully not your money.

Why go to Costa Rica?

  • Check out the very active, very stereotypical Volcán Arenal. Just don’t climb it
  • Swim or relax on Pacific or Caribbean beaches
  • Grab your board for some of Central America’s best surfing
  • Photograph the scarlet macaws in Parque Nacional Corcovado
