Thanksgiving Adventure in Costa Rica

November 28, 2023 No Comments

I recently had the incredible opportunity to celebrate Thanksgiving in Costa Rica, embarking on a journey filled with breathtaking landscapes, thrilling adventures, and memorable experiences. Here’s a glimpse into my Costa Rican Thanksgiving adventure:

Thanksgiving Flight to Liberia

We kicked off our adventure with a Thanksgiving flight to Liberia, Costa Rica, on the west coast. Our destination: the beautiful town of Coco. Upon arrival, we indulged in a local food buffet at El Jardín, a central tourist hub, marking the beginning of our holiday getaway.

Arrival in Coco and Beachside Bliss

Arriving after sunset in Coco, we initially found ourselves slightly lost, but the sound of the ocean from our villa reassured us of our serene surroundings. The next morning greeted us with a spectacular view of the ocean, setting the stage for a day of exploration and relaxation.
