Costa Rica Facts:

Perhaps not enough words exist to describe Costa Rica. This country is certainly an exquisite and promising tourist destination. Located in Central America, this part of the Isthmus covers a minuscule 0.01 per cent of the planet’s surface and yet holds approximately 6 per cent of the world’s entire biodiversity.

This country is renowned for its amazing scenery, well-developed national parks and biological reserves, as well as many other advantages related to social aspects and infrastructure.

Its 32.000 square miles are bathed on the coastlines by both the Pacific Ocean and Caribbean Sea. This geographical situation can also cause quite an impact on the climate. There are only two distinct seasons year round: from May to November (rainy) and December to April (dry).

-Time zone: In the Central standard time zone. (-6:00 GMT).
-Language: Spanish is official, but English is widely spoken.
-Population: Approximately 4 million inhabitants.
-Currency: The official currency is the colon. However, US dollars are widely accepted.
-Main Cities: The capital is San José, head of one of seven provinces. The others are Alajuela, Cartago, Heredia, Guanacaste, Puntarenas and Limon.

-Friendliness: You will always feel welcome in Costa Rica. That feeling is the people, in their warmth and in their smiles. And it is not just a welcome but a real culture of friendliness and courtesy surrounded by places you don’t expect and pleasant moments you won’t forget.

-Life: Life abounds in the tropical rain forest, national parks, biological reserves and pristine beaches where 850 species of birds, thousands of orchid’s species and 5% of the World’s biodiversity are living it up. A paradise for sightseeing, or just relaxing, and relax you will, in a country that has no army, has more teachers than policemen, lives peacefully and focuses its greatest efforts on health, education and human development.
