Come Play at Crocodile Bay in 2021

Come Play at Crocodile Bay in 2021

The year 2020 was, to say the least, a challenge. Costa Rica, like many other countries on our planet faced a world-wide pandemic head-on. But few countries have been as successful in flattening the curve as this colorful country. The key for Costa Rica was its quick response and how seriously the government took the situation right from the beginning.

The small Central American country is recognized worldwide as a strong democracy with a historical dedication towards human rights, sustainable development, environmental protection, and a solid public education system.

Costa Rica also has a robust universal healthcare system, with free healthcare for approximately 95% of the population. This has contributed to the life expectancy in the country being one of the highest in the world (79.6 years, as indicated by the World Health Organization). This small country has also been identified as being one of only five Blue Zone longevity hotspots. It is here that you will find the longest living people in the world. All of this natural beauty and happiness must be good for you.

Here at Crocodile Bay Resort, we are fortunate to be located in one of the most biologically intense places on earth. There is an abundance of remote waterfalls, warm secluded beaches, and lush primary rainforest. The Osa Peninsula is an outdoor playground that everyone should experience. With over 30 ecotours and a world-class fishing department, Crocodile Bay Resort is more than well equipped to help you explore and enjoy the great outdoors.

So come play at Crocodile Bay on the Osa Peninsula in Costa Rica. Come breathe in the fresh air, bathe in the warm waters, and experience the freedom of unspoiled nature.
