Costa Rica is washed by both the waters of the Pacific Ocean and the Caribbean Sea, making a Costa Rica sea vacation tour one of the most sought-after destinations among tourists. If you're wondering what sets a sea vacation in Costa Rica apart from other resorts, the country's beaches are renowned for being some of the most environmentally friendly and pristine in the world. What's more, they are also considered among the safest.
Which beach resort to choose in Costa Rica
If you prefer a more relaxed and predictable vacation on Costa Rica's beaches, you should head to the Pacific Coast for that. Keep in mind that most beaches are suitable for surfing, as they have big waves on a daily basis, but not all are suitable for swimming with children.
For the best Costa Rica seaside vacations with kids, go to the beaches of Montezuma, and choose beaches near Manuel, Corcovado and Antonio. If you're visiting the Caribbean, the area from Cahuita to Manzanillo is considered the calmest.
Features of Costa Rica's beaches
Many beaches are characterized by dark and even black volcanic sand. If you are frightened or alarmed by this phenomenon, it is easy to find light-colored beaches with white or yellow sand. Due to the many kilometers of coastal territory, many beaches are deserted. Some of them have bars and cafes where you can enjoy a cold drink and listen to unobtrusive local music.
