Costa Rica's Natural Wonders

Costa Rica’s landscape is defined by its intense volcanic activity and dense tropical biodiversity. This collection features the perfectly symmetrical Arenal Volcano and the high-altitude Irazú Volcano, known for its vibrant crater lake. The list highlights the Osa Peninsula's Corcovado National Park, which protects 2.5% of the world's biodiversity, and the geothermal features of Rincón de la Vieja. Water-based landmarks include the chemically turquoise Río Celeste, the 70-meter La Fortuna Waterfall, and Lake Arenal, the country's largest landlocked body of water.
