The strong focus on the rich bio-diversity of the country, Costa Rican culture and forthcoming travel trends make the Bradt guide the essential companion. A wide breadth of activities for travellers are covered: from white-water rafting, cycling and sports fishing to assisting with turtle research, interacting with indigenous tribes and grassroots 'rural tourism' initiatives. Also featured are special opportunities such as dolphin encounters in Drake Bay.
