Costa Rica’s rich heritage is bordered by the clear waters of the Pacific Ocean and the palm fringed Caribbean Sea where giant turtles come ashore to lay their eggs in the soft sand. The moss clad cloud forest on the slopes of Monteverde is where sacred red and green quetzal birds hide in the tree tops and on the Osa Peninsula, the Corcovado National Park is home to six species of cat and world renowned flora and fauna.
