Columbus called Costa Rica the "Rich Coast" upon his discovery in 1502. Rich in beauty, rich in ecology and rich in flora and fauna with thousands of species of plants, animals, birds and insects that live in magnificent and sometimes mysterious tropical forests. Costa Rica's wealth of natural resources is so abundant that it even exports oxygen, an essential nutrient for a better, healthier and cleaner way of life. Some call Costa Rica the "Switzerland of the Americas", others call it "Paradise on Earth". You can call it what you like but one visit to Costa Rica and the memory of it will be etched in your mind forever. About the size of West Virginia, Costa Rica encompasses about 20,000 square miles of enchanting rainforests, majestic mountains, and countless virgin beaches among rocky bluffs, enclosed by numerous peninsulas and bays of unsurpassed scenic beauty. Its natural heritage form one of the world's most outstanding biological reserve and national park systems.
