Sarapiqui holidays

Sarapiqui - a region in the north of Costa Rica - is a haven for adrenalin junkies and nature lovers alike. The Rio Sarapiqui is the place for white-water rafting and kayaking, while the neighbouring forest landscapes are tailor-made for hiking, mountain biking and wonderful wildlife watching. Besides the draw of outdoor activities during Sarapiqui holidays, this gorgeous green oasis is a major banana-producing region for the country, and also grows everything from coffee and cacao to pineapples and corn. You can expect to eat well during Sarapiqui holidays as a result, and if you’d like to learn more about the growing and production processes, coffee tours (with tastings) can be arranged. Other distinct features of Sarapiqui include its lively and vibrant ‘turnos’, or outdoor festivals, while its nature reserves are one of the few remaining habitats for Costa Rica’s endangered Green Macaw.
