Adventure vacations in Costa Rica
Costa Rica is a mecca for adrenaline fiends. Famed for its zip lines which whizz through the cloud forest, 30 metres high, you can also trek up an active volcano, go whitewater rafting on grade II-IV rapids, learn to dive or surf, and kayak in search of shy wildlife in the coastal mangrove swamps. You can even cycle coast to coast – from the Pacific to the dreamy Caribbean. Find more ideas for your Central American expedition with our adventure vacations in Costa Rica.
