Costa Rica spans nearly 20,000 square miles (51,800 square kilometers) from coast to coast, border to border. More than half of that is forested, and the nation has the largest percentage of protected wilderness in the world. It’s a haven of land-based activities for eco-explorers.
It is estimated that the first humans arrived in Costa Rica sometime between 7,000 and 10,000 BC. The nation’s history includes dozens of indigenous groups, along with settlers from Spain. Today, the nation is a melting pot of natives and immigrants from Europe, Asia, Africa, and neighboring Central American nations. Together, these people have weaved an intricate tapestry of history and culture that’s just waiting to be discovered.
