Guanacaste
2
With long hot summer days, beautiful beaches, and an interior that is paradise to an adventure traveler, Gauanacaste - the northwestern region of Costa Rica - has all the pieces of the puzzle to be a top-notch holiday destination. The eastern border of the region is lined with a chain of volcanoes, offering brilliant, intense hikes to the top as well as through dense forests full of endangered animals and exotic birds. This is the land of the cloud forests. After a few days deep in the bust, head to the beaches for brilliant western sunsets over the horizon, well-appointed accommodation, and a truly “escaped” atmosphere.
