Itinerary for the Southern Costa Rica
Day 1 – San Jose to Dominical
Arrive in San Jose, transfer to Dominical through one of the most splendid areas in Costa Rica. On the way to the beach, cross the Cerro de la Muerte, part of the highest mountain range in Costa Rica, with an altitude of 11,500. Arrive at Dominical where the rain forest meets the ocean, and settle in at Hotel Domilocos on the beach.
Day 2 – White Water Rafting
Feel the rush and adrenaline of white water rafting when you navigate down the Coto Brus River (class III and IV) or the Savegre River (class II and II). During the run, see waterfalls and enjoy the richness in wildlife and unique scenery. After a day of paddling, return to the beach to relax and enjoy the sunset.
Day 3 – Surfing and Boot Camp
Learn to surf at one of the best surfing beaches in the world, Playa Dominical. Connect with the ocean and walk on water! After surfing, enjoy lunch and relaxation time, and then it’s time for boot camp on the beach with Mike, The Laid Back Drill Sergeant. There’s no better way to stay fit and have fun doing it. Then relax in the waterfall pool near Poza Azul and enjoy the rope swing and jump into the pool!
