If you want some great fishing, Costa Rica is your answer. As well as being nestled between the bountiful fishing areas of the Caribbean to the northeast and the Pacific to the south and west, you\’ll be able to enjoy superior Latin American hospitality in Costa Rica bed breakfasts or holiday rentals in one of the most accommodating and naturally rich countries throughout the globe.
This is a fact. Despite what you have heard about the troubles in other countries in this part of the world, you\’ll be hard pressed to encounter them in a country coming at Number 3 from above in the New Economic Foundation\’s Happy Planet Index.
Aptly, one of the premier deep sea fishing services and other tourist and visitor facilities – such as Costa Rica holiday inns and beachfront rentals – happens to be situated in town known as Los Suenos, or \”place of dreams.\” You\’ll find that Los Suenos is as good a place to start one\’s discovery of a country which enjoys a hospitable climate all year-round, mildly heated by the equatorial sun then cooled as a result of the coastal winds (the lowest warmth acknowledged is approximately 50 degrees in the mountains, and the highest is around 80) as well as containing above one eighth of the globe\’s species of flora and fauna. Actually, apart from world-class deep-sea fishing, eco-tourism is the hottest pursuit among travelers to Costa Rica.
Although Spanish is the official language in Costa Rica, English is learned in almost all of the country\’s schools, and Ticos, as the natives refer to themselves, benefit from the high standard of teaching in addition to the best health care in the developing world. Costa Ricans know a degree of tranquillity and affluence virtually unknown elsewhere across the planet (despite – or maybe as a result of – not having had an on-call army since 1948). Subsequently, criminal activity and violence are thankfully uncommon – it is possible to stay in Costa Rica vacation rentals virtually anywhere in this green and friendly kingdom. Of course, you\’ll probably want to check out Costa Rican cabin rentals on the shoreline – although the inland is absolutely worth visiting, the most superior fishing is in the ocean.
The other advantage to spending your beach vacations at Costa Rica vacation homes rather than holiday rentals such as hotel rooms is due to the fact that you will usually find completely fitted cooking facilities. Which means, following your excursion on the water, you can bring your catch home to your holiday abode and spice it up to how you like it – or hire one of the local inhabitants to cook it up for you in the traditional manner (which after all, is the best part of visiting any exotic environment).
Besides fishing and eco-tours, you will discover a wealth of things to do and places to see in Costa Rica, which includes white water rafting, scuba diving, ATV tours and more. And although all year round is a good time to travel to this tropical paradise, the top time (not to mention the most economical) is during what the Ticos call the \”Green Season,\” which is October through to early November.
