Costa Rica Holidays

With lush rainforest and magical cloud forests, white-sandy beaches, warm hot springs and smoking volcanoes, your holiday in Costa Rica is bound to delight you!

Costa Rica has some of the world’s most beautiful beaches. With coastlines along both the Pacific Ocean and the Caribbean Sea, its beaches are diverse and uniquely beautiful. From the golden stretches of sand backed by dense jungle and chattering monkeys at Punta Uva to the volcanic black sand and nesting sea turtles at Ostional Beach, there is a perfect beach awaiting just you. If you like indulging in water sports then we recommend that you stick to the South Pacific coastline, particularly to Playa Dominical and Tamarindo, for some exceptional surfing spots.

The miles of spectacular beaches are fringed by Costa Rica’s lush rainforest, misty cloud forest and towering mountains and volcanoes. Do ensure your tailor made holiday in Costa Rica includes a visit to the imposing and incredibly majestic Arenal Volcano. Incredibly, this volcano was spewing large amounts of lava, gas and ash on a daily basis right up until 2010. You can take a scenic hike to admire this sleeping giant’s impressive silhouette, or admire the view from one of the blissfully relaxing natural warm baths at Arenal Hot Springs.
