Costa Rica is supposed to be awesome--I've been wanted to go. Everyone who goes seems to love it. St. Croix is also supposed to be nice-it's by St. John. Tortolla has been highly recommended to ...
Yah i duno about costa rica , cuase isnt it just hot,, Like ive been lookin at pics of it, and resorts and stuff, and its not impressing me at all! isnt it a poor island
I went to costa rica and loved it. there aren't a lot of people, it's inexpensive, and it's not really any hotter than any other tropical place. there is plenty of beach stuff in costa rica and you can stay on the caribbean side or the pacific ocean side. you can go tour the rain forest (amazing), snorkel, etc, go horseback riding on the beach, do canopy tours, they have natural hot spring spas. And we stayed at this really great resort where you ate each meal at a different restaurant (everything is open air there, too). On the resort was kinda different sections and we stayed in an apartment on a cliff overlooking the ocean. there was a private pool up there too. Oh, you just can't be scared of animals and lizards and stuff-they run around but are mainly harmless. Look at OrbitCostaRica.com
Outside of those places though is it like watch your back? Like how jamiaca is, its beutiful among the resorts but your risking your life if you go outside em
the coastal cities are pretty ok. a lot of people we met were native surfers or american surfers who went down there to live. oh yeah, i forgot it is has some of the best surfing beaches in the world. anyway, it's kinda poor but i didn't really feel unsafe-just don't wonder around by yourself.
