Why Costa Rica?

CLIMATE

Costa Rica enjoys a spring like weather all year round. The average temperature in the Central Valley is 72F or 22C. The temperature near the coasts and on the beaches ranges between 90F or 32C.
The abundance of microclimates has produced one of the richest fauna and flora found in the planet. The greenery and climate make Costa Rica an everlasting spring country.

Costa Rica has become famous worldwide as a prime ecotourism, nature and adventure destination. 27% is conserved through the National Park system or private reserves in a sustainable way. In addition, Costa Rica’s unique geography and topology make it the world’s most biodiversity country.

An investment in Costa Rica is much more certain than an investment in Hawai real estate was 30 years ago. Costa Rica’s current prosperity is being fueled by the emigration of affluent baby boomers from around the world seeking their own piece of paradise.

Most visitors to Costa Rica fall in love with this beautiful country and its friendly people. Let's face it, from idyllic tropical beaches, verdant mountains where the climate is always spring-like, to tropical rain forests with abundant flora and fauna, there is a lot to love. For some people the main attraction is the world class sport fishing. For others it is the numerous national parks and/or the numerous species of birds found here. Maybe it's just the ideal climate and the slower pace of life.
But many others have found in Costa Rica the best place to invest and do business. Located in the middle of the American Continent, air and ocean freight transportation services are provided to major American, Mexican, Central American, South American and Caribbean ports and cities. This makes the country a superb location and strategic base for world markets.

According to AACCLA, Association of American Chambers of Commerce in Latin America, Costa Rica's labor force has been rated as the most productive and fast learning in Latin America. And according to the United Nations' Human Development Index (HDI) for 1999, Costa Rica has one of the highest ratings for quality of human resources among developing nations.
