Get ready for a week of wellness in Costa Rica along with the excitement of the rainy season adventures!

Costa Rica, known for its stunning natural beauty, is set to host weeklong retreats focusing on longevity and wellness. Vail Health and Surf Synergy have joined forces to offer participants a rejuvenating experience in the tropical paradise. As visitors immerse themselves in Costa Rica's lush landscapes, they can look forward to activities aimed at promoting holistic well-being.

On the other side of the spectrum, volunteers from West Tennessee have returned home after a memorable trip to Costa Rica. Despite the rainy season, students from various cities in Tennessee embraced the tropical weather, learning about the country's unique culture and environment. Their summer escapade in the midst of Costa Rica's rainy season surely made for an unforgettable experience.

Costa Rica, however, is currently on high alert as a tropical wave and the indirect effects of Hurricane Beryl threaten to bring heavy rainfall to the region. Residents and tourists alike are advised to prepare for the impending weather conditions and potential challenges this may pose. Despite the temporary setback, Costa Rica remains a top destination for adventure-seekers and nature enthusiasts.

In an interesting turn of events, did you know that Costa Rica has over 800 miles of coastline? This makes it a prime location for surfing enthusiasts and beach lovers. Additionally, Costa Rica's commitment to sustainability has led to the country being a leader in eco-tourism, with over 25% of its land dedicated to protected areas.
