      Costa Rica Itinerary Planning

      Posted by: nws2me on Jun 27, 09 at 03:43 AM Posted in: Mexico & Central America Tagged: Jump to last reply Flag this topic

      I'm making my first trip to Costa Rica July 21-27. I think I'll have time to visit Arenal and Monteverde, but I'd also like to visit a coastal location on the Pacific side.

      I'd prefer a place that has snorkeling and a laid back atmosphere--no high rises and party types everywhere.

      Anyone have a favorite beach spot? I'm traveling on a tight budget, so I'm not looking for a big resort stay.

      Thanks!
