…Beautiful beaches, lush rainforests, adventure activities, abundant wildlife...
Costa Rica will always hold a special place in our hearts as it is where we had our wedding and honeymoon!  

Costa Rica is a relatively small country in Central America bordered by Nicragua to the north and Panama to the southeast.  It has the Pacific Ocean in the southwest and the Caribbean Sea to the northeast. Since it is located 8-12 degrees north of the equator, it enjoys a tropical climate year round.  It’s seasons can be split into two: dry (Dec-Apr) and wet (May-Nov). In addition to beautiful beaches, rainforests, and volcanoes, it also has a rich variety of plants and animals. 

Here are highlights (DINK TRIP Tips) from our trip...for more details or to help plan your own visit, contact us!
