Baby Boomers vacationing in Costa Rica find paradise in their beautiful beaches, rainforests, mountains and plenty of wildernesses.
With the wealth of travel destinations available to Baby Boomers, the question is - Why consider vacationing in Costa Rica over anywhere else for our vacation this year?
Costa Rica is just a few hours flight from the United States yet offers a varied range of possibilities for a great vacation spot.
Costa Rica is easy enough to get to from the United States with regular flights into the capital - San Jose, Liberia and Limon. You can use one of the two small internal airlines to take you to one of the small runways across the country. It is, as you might imagine, the fastest but most expensive way to travel around the country.
From the airport we can catch standard buses to anywhere we like in the country for just a few dollars. Alternatively order one of the tourist shuttle buses that will take you direct to our hotel or anywhere else in the country we desire. Taxis can also be found everywhere though are most abundant in San Jose.
Hotels range from the cheapest hostels in shared dorms for just a few dollars a night up to 5 star resorts. You can even consider renting a home with maid and cook. They are very competitively priced with inclusive resorts and can find them just about anywhere in Costa Rica.
Food tends to be down to earth apart from the posh hotels and resorts but is still perfectly acceptable. From the Costa Rican dish Casado, a combination of vegetables, rice, beans and meat (which is very tasty indeed) to burgers, pasta and pizza most tates are suitably accounted for. Luckily the food doesn't tend to be overly spicy and is generally reasonably priced. Drinks can consist of fantastic, locally grown coffee or fresh fruit smoothies at a tiny percentage of what you'd pay back home.
For the adventurous Baby Boomer Costa Rica offers rainforests, mountains and wilderness in great magnitude. We can go rapelling, flying down zip lines, crossing bridges slung between treetops and ATV driving.
For the nature loving Baby Boomer Costa Rica probably has more wildlife than virtually anywhere else on the planet. Coati, sloths, jaguar, tapir, four species of monkey and more butterflies than anywhere else in the world make this a nature lover’s mecca. For the avid bird watcher there are toucans, macaws, vultures and a host of others.
For the relaxation loving Baby Boomer there are sunny, safe sandy beaches covered in palm trees and resorts on the Pacific coast where you can experience 5 star service, swimming pools and world-class cuisine.
So choose your activities, buy your ticket and pack your bags. We'll see you down there soon!
