It's no surprise to us here at Costa Rica Surf Trip that Costa Rica has made the Lonely Planet list of Best in Travel 2020, for the top ten countries you should visit this coming year!
As a country teeming with wildlife to see, activities to do, and information to learn as well as Costa Rica's leadership on a global scale regarding environmental issues and sustainable living as well as tourism, it's no wonder we are number six on Lonely Planet's list! LP most specifically recognizes us among "the best destinations, journeys, and sustainable travel experiences for the year ahead." That pretty much sums up how we feel about Costa Rica, and it's not unique to the year ahead! Not only is sustainable tourism one of, if not THE, largest industry in Costa Rica, it's not just private business supporting the green movement; the federal government is a strong proponent for trying to become the first carbon neutral nation in the world, encouraging the use of renewable resources (over 90% of the nation's energy production) and appreciating its natural resources, with over 25% of the country designated as protected land! If the natural beauty and the intentions of both the private and public sector interests in the greater good of the environment aren't enough of a motivator for your visit, the nations consistent ranking as one of the top happiest countries in the world will convince you to come and meet these happy people and find out what makes them so happy! Or finally, even if you don't want anything to do with people for a while and just need to escape it all, you have your choice of incredible places to escape to including exotic rainforests, fascinating dry forests, exhilarating mountains, active volcanoes, and the world-famous beaches of prestige that give Costa Rica its name: "the rich coast." But don't take our word for it; Listen to Lonely Planet. Or better yet: don't listen to anyone; Come see for yourself and tell us where we sit on your list of top places you've ever visited!
