Let's face it, there are so many tropical travel destinations out there that it can be difficult to choose which one to travel to. At a glance, destinations such as the Bahamas, Belize, and Jamaica all seem to offer some of the same things: beaches, beautiful scenery, and an exciting culture. However, if you delve deeper into each of these tropical nations, you'll find something that will make a trip there unique and exciting. One location that stands uniquely amongst all of these places is Costa Rica. Yes, it is a country with everything mentioned above, yet it offers many things that none of the other tropical travel destinations do.

Located in Central America, this small nation is covered in some of the most exotic jungles in the world. These jungles offer species of plants and animals that are indigenous to Costa Rica. Whether they are monkeys, insects, or spiny red plants, these aspects of the country make it someplace that no other tropical travel destination can replicate. Trek through the rainforest-covered mountains in Costa Rica and you'll begin to understand how this small area of the world is a place so unlike any other out there.

Not only does Costa Rica sport some wonderful scenery, it is also full of history that is well-documented and extremely interesting. A visit to the dense and urban capital of San Jose will offer you many places to learn about this history in a fun and educational way and also introduce you to the unique culture that surrounds the country and its lively people. San Jose has some of the best museums, art galleries, and cultural activities in all of Central America. People travel from miles to visit these museums, just to experience more of the nation that continues to steal travelers' hearts left and right.

Although the country is, indeed, unique, it still offers what all tropical countries tend to offer, a relaxing environment filled with exotic surroundings and beautiful, sandy beaches. The beaches in Costa Rica are among some of the most beautiful in the Caribbean, and they along the coast of small towns that often have surprisingly quaint and safe little beachside resorts that mix enthusiastic Costa Rican culture with a laid-back beach experience popular for many travelers.

Costa Rica is by far one of the more one-of-a-kind tropical vacation destinations in the world. It's no wonder why people continue to return to the country, year after year, to revisit the sights and sounds of a nation that brings with it things that no other country can offer. Experience these aspects of the tropical nation yourself by visiting Costa Rica and taking part in the numerous activities that cannot be found anywhere else in the world.
