What does Sustainability mean in Costa Rica? 

Costa Rica is a small country with a strong commitment: to protect its Nature and share it with the world. Over 26% of its national territory—more than 1.3 million acres (≈ 540,000 hectares)—is protected as national parks, forest reserves, and wildlife refuges. The country is currently home to 29 national parks and dozens of protected areas that safeguard its natural wealth.

Although Costa Rica covers only 0.03% of the planet’s land surface, it harbors nearly 5% of the world’s biodiversity. This means that every responsible visit helps preserve one of the planet’s most valuable natural treasures.
