Can't miss spots in Costa Rica
Great blog post about places to see in Costa Rica
"In a country where off-the-beaten path can be quite literal, here are spots to visit after you've landed or already done Arenal and Manuel Antonio. You could try to do it all on one long trip, or return again and again to knock these can't-miss spots off the list."

Another great article about things to do in Costa Rica.
Along with some of our own photos.
"Located on the Pacific coast of Costa Rica, on the southernmost point of the Nicoya Peninsula, Montezuma has an off-the-beaten-path feel. Visitors and locals enjoy its quiet beaches, proximity to wildlife, and unique laidback artistic vibe.

If you find your way to this little slice of paradise, you’ll discover a multitude of adventurous and relaxing things to do."
