Costa Rica has managed Covid-19 remarkably well, and has experienced a relatively low rate of disease and loss. Masks are required in all indoor public spaces, and this requirement is strictly enforced. Luckily, the best of Costa Rica, including restaurants, are all outdoors where risk of transmission are minimal.
Most visit Costa Rica for its incredible biodiversity -- beautiful flowering plants, rainforests, monkeys, birds, and turtles. Increasingly, the far northern western province of Guanacaste, home to Costa Rica's "Gold Coast" beaches, is a destination for foodies. And we're not talking about the restaurants at the area's luxury resorts. Yes, the Four Seasons offers wonderful dining, but you'll be doing yourself a disservice if you don't try these places.
