Our Master List Of Costa Rica Do’s And Don’ts

Don’t drive fast in your rental car, on the highway, or blowing dust all over everything on the dirt roads. Don’t pay bribes on the highway. Tickets do not cost that much. Don’t waste your time comparing Costa Rica life to life in the U.S.. It doesn’t translate.

Do take a million pictures, enjoy the incredible clean air, catch waves, climb hills, commune with nature, it’s everywhere.

Once again go slow, that’s the pace here.

I LOVE Costa Rica! Glad I found your blog!

I had the pleasure of spending 9 days in Guanacaste Province trapping and banding the Ruby Throated Hummingbird with expert Bill Hilton, Jr. on one of his citizen scientist trips called “Operation Ruby Throat” in February of 2009. I went back for a quick visit to the Caribbean side near Puerto Limon in April of 2011. I will return for sure, just don’t know when.

When you go to places like Costa Rica, it is very important to know the Do’s and Don’t’s if you don’t want your trip to be spent haphazardly. Costa Rica is a wonderful place. A trip to the this land must be enjoyed thoroughly.

I am really challenged to visit Costa Rica and I like your DO’s and DON’T’s!

Awesome information! I’m heading to Nicaragua in January, have you ever been?
