J
ourney with us to one of the most exquisite and naturally exotic places in the world for a once-in-alifetime vacation – a vacation that is as healthy as it is adventurous and enchanting.
This is your vacation, which means one thing: you decide what the day has in store for you: Soar through the jungle on a rainforest canopy tour, learn how to surf, or simply opt for a relaxing day warming your feet in the sand on a perfect beach. We made it easy by selecting one of the most adventuresome tropical destinations on the planet! Whatever you choose to do, you are guaranteed a unique and unbelievably enjoyable experience of a lifetime. We’ll see you in paradise! Eric L. Zayes President
Your Healthy Adventure vacation is filled with daily pleasures for mind, body and spirit: • World-class vegetarian cuisine prepared by one of Healthy Adventure’s finest Executive Chefs, Peter Cervoni. • Yoga and Pilates classes. • Inspiring seminars by world renowned natural health experts: Viktoras Kulvinskas, the father of living foods; his wife and awardwinning dance instructor, Youkta, and other notable speakers. Costa Rica’s tropical paradise offers you some of the most exhilarating adventure explorations in all the Americas. From waterfalls to volcanoes, from rainforests to the country’s breathtaking coastlines, an immense variety of flora, fauna and such wildlife as monkeys, sloth and toucans are there for you to discover.
Here are some of the activities to choose from:
Samasati Biological Reserve
Black Beach Botanical Garden
Rain Forest Canopy Adventure
Samasati’s virgin rain forest is host to more than a thousand known life forms, with thousands yet to be discovered. From dawn until dusk, songs of wrens and antbirds, the insect-like call of dart frogs and the screams of howler monkeys punctuate the stillness of the rainforest. Walking into the rain forest is like taking a giant step back in time.
The Black Beach Botanical Garden is home to a vast variety of flowers, ornamental and medicinal plants, rare plants, bizarre plants, plants for cosmetic use, and plants we use daily, such as black pepper and vanilla. It’s a must for nature lovers who wish to fully appreciate the biodiversity of Costa Rica’s tropical rain forest.
Just minutes away from our resort, eight aerial platforms and 1200 meters of cable – nestled deep into the jungle – give you an opportunity to “dive” into the jungle from above. Guides share facts about the vegetation and animals, offering you, the adventure seeker, unbelievably enjoyable experiences in the rainforest.
Cahuita National Park Miles of white beach, dense tropical jungle and adventure await you on a tour that begins with a boat trip to the coral reef for snorkeling. A guided walk on the Cahuita National Park’s trail follows, during which wild animals can easily be spotted in the abundant and colorful flora.
Kekoldi Indigenous Reserve The Cabecar and Bribri Indians are among the oldest inhabitants of Costa Rica. Their community and culture are intact, hidden from the curiosity of average tourists. Our visit to them will include a stop at the majestic Volio Waterfall. Please note that Costa Rica prides itself on the sustainable tourism essential for the survival of these tribes.
