Discover Costa Rica / Guanacaste province

Travelling from the Central Valley to Guanacaste is an almost surreal experience. The steep and winding roads gradually become flatter and straighter, and the lush, humid plant-life become sparser and drier.
A rolling savannah of hot dry plains and grasslands with large cattle ranches, beautiful tropical rain forest beaches, national parks and refuges which contain a world of wonders, from caverns and geysers to nesting turtles, this province has become the most diverse and attractive area for tourist enjoyment.
It is remarkable to observe how quickly the parched and brown countryside regains its verdant appearance after the first showers of each new rainy season. In Guanacaste, these afternoon showers usually return by middle May and continue until about middle November.
