My interview with the new Blue River Resort & Hot Springs
I'm a former Peace Corps volunteer in Northern Costa Rica and would like to share my extensive experience to maximize your Costa Rica travel experience. I will highlight major tourist attractions, as well as some great natural and cultural treasures off the beaten path. I will also offer practical Costa Rica travel tips that will help you conquer the subtleties of traveling in foreign lands. Come back periodically, as I will be updating the site with new interesting Costa Rica travel destinations. |

The Arenal Volcano is the most active volcano in Central America. Travel to La Fortuna
and see this rumbling giant spew lava in nightime pyrotechnic shows. Also enjoy the
view during a number of different daytime tours around La Fortuna, including
the hot springs, waterfalls, and more.
Come see the Arenal Volcano.
LA FORTUNA WATERFALL
The La Fortuna Waterfall
offers one of the most impressive views in all of
Costa Rica. This 70-meter ribbon of water is surrounded by lush tropical forest
protected by an important conservation effort.
Hot Springs Comparison
Not sure which hot springs resort is for you? Do you want fancy with a view or private
with cheap drinks?
Look over our Hot Springs Comparison Chart
to make an informed hot springs choice when you travel to La Fortuna.

RIO CELESTE
Rio Celeste is an enchanting river surrounded by lush tropical forest and
dyed blue by minerals from the Tenorio Volcano. Travel in Costa Rica has
largely left out this natural wonder that features the country's
best waterfall scene.
Check out Rio Celeste.
Venado Caves
Discover the Venado Caves, Costa Rica's strangest, yet most exhilarating tourism experience.
Costa Rican Souvenirs
Let's be honest—souvenirs are usually pretty lame. Check out La Ranita Souvenirs.
You can bring back a traditional Costa Rican cowboy belt...or you can just pick up a t-shirt at the beach and be lame.
