Nestled in Central America and bordered by two oceans, Costa Rica boasts a unique environment teeming with exceptional biodiversity—a rarity in today's world. This remarkable country harbors 6% of the planet's biodiversity, including 850 bird species, 34,000 insects, and 12,000 plants. Scientists uncover astonishing discoveries yearly, like the translucent frog found in 2015. Its landscapes are incredibly diverse: endless sandy beaches, pristine virgin forests, active volcanoes, and vibrant coral reefs.
Since 1998, Costa Rica has championed environmental respect, designating 26% of its land as protected areas. This effort has restored forests to cover half the territory. In energy production, it relies on 98.7% renewables. No wonder 2.5 million visitors were drawn to its lush paradise in 2015 alone—an ideal choice for eco-conscious travelers!
