This is the hidden paradise of Costa Rica, a tiny little country located in Central America, nestled between Panama and Nicaragua. The tiny size is compensated by the amount of lush natural resources and fauna to be found. It would seem the people in Costa Rica certainly know how to enjoy themselves and be 'laid back' at the same time.
This tiny country is home to 5% of the World biodiversity which is quite amazing when you consider the size. There are a total of 26 national parks and protected area in Costa Rica. Vacationing here offers a lot of great ocean views since it's got the Pacific Ocean to the West and the Caribbean Sea to the East. The Caribbean side offers tranquil moments basking in the warm sun and beautiful sunsets while the other side offers large waves for some hot heart stopping action for the adventurous soul.
There's so much you can do while on a Costa Rican vacation and the activities are endless. Revel at the variety of wildlife available here- macaws, leatherback turtles, morphed butterflies, just to name |

The good news for the Andorra resorts comes firstly because of Arinsal.
Arinsal topped the poll and won because, with some sixty per cent of British skiers fitting in the novice category, the Andorra ski holidays resort is perfect for them. Away from top class skiers, the whole village atmosphere makes for happy new skiers - and happy new skiers are likely to continue skiing in future years, boosting the ski |
