Often dubbed as the ‘happiest country in the world’, Costa Rica’s people, also known as Ticos, are friendly and warm. Their strong sense of freedom and equality is heavily evident in their rich culture and various traditions.
Best time to visit
Dry season (December - April) is generally the most popular period to visit. With a low chance of rainfall, even in the rainforests, it’s the perfect time to take advantage of the beautiful weather and exploring. Visibility, which is important for common Costa Rican activities such as snorkelling, trekking and wildlife spotting, is high also.
