New Free eBook Reveals Tips for
Vacationing in Costa Rica
While researching vacation spots
in the Caribbean, publisher Joe
Farinaccio uncovered some
valuable tips and information on
Costa Rica. He announced he's
giving them away in a free ebook,
"Insider Tips and Activities
Guide for Costa Rica," to anyone
looking for a unique, tropical
getaway. The following
activities are among those
discussed in this ebook:
1. See beaches world-renown for
their breathtaking beauty, minus
the large crowds. Hollywood
stars, and other famous
personalities, have enjoyed
these quiet Costa Rican havens
for years because it's always
possible to carve out one's own
slice of "private paradise"
along the shore.
2. The world-class sport fishing
is excellent, whether booking a
half-day charter or multi-day
fishing tour. The Osa Peninsula
region, for example, is teeming
with sailfish, blue marlins,
striped marlins, sea bass,
yellow fin tuna, wahu,
roosterfish, mackerel, dorado
and red snapper.
3. Costa Rica's volcanoes and
natural hot springs are much
closer to North America than
Hawaii's. Instead of traveling
halfway around the world to
watch lava flow and then sip
cocktails while relaxing in
natural hot spring afterwards,
North Americans can prepare to
experience the same things after
only a 2-hour flight from Miami.
4. Take a famous canopy or "zipline"
ride. A series of cables glide
riders atop the rain forest's
canopy for an exhilarating ride
above the trees. Riders have the
sensation they're flying in the
air over the jungle beneath.
5. Rappel down live jungle
waterfalls. There are a huge
number of small, yet spectacular
waterfalls throughout Costa
Rica. Skilled guides take
participants down the inclines
of many of them using double
ropes so vacationers can reach
the tranquil pools at the bottom
for private lunches and tropical
swims.
6. Shoot pictures on a "river
safari" without going all the
way to Africa. Most
naturalists/guides who typically
host these riverboat tours will
even do the paddling. This
allows riders to shoot pictures
of monkeys, toucans, iguanas,
crocodiles and many of the
hundreds of other wildlife
species frequently encountered
on these trips.
7. Tour an authentic coffee
plantation. Costa Rican coffee
estates give coffee lovers a
real-world look at how coffee
beans go from the field to
supermarket shelf. The whole
process is covered -- including
how the beans are grown,
harvested and finally processed.
Of course, fresh cups of "java"
are usually waiting at the end
of these tours, along with
treats such as chocolate-covered
coffee beans.
8. Visit Tortuguero National
Park during turtle-nesting
season. This event, along Costa
Rica's Caribbean coast, is a
favorite for nature lovers.
Naturalists are amazed the baby
turtles that hatch and leave
during this event don't come
back for 25 years before taking
their turn in the reproductive
process.
9. Ride river rapids that
accommodate a wide variety of
experience levels. Certified
bi-lingual guides accompany
thrill seekers to ensure these
trips are as safe as possible.
Costa Rica's abundant supply of
rivers makes it seem like one of
these rides is always within
easy travel distance, no matter
where one is in the country. |
