National Geographic ranked Costa Rica the Best Latin American Destination
Costa Rica has once again accomplished success! Notably, the country won the inaugural National Geographic Travel Readers’ Choice Award for “Best Latin American Destination” in that category. This esteemed award provides a further commendation for a nation that has already won recognition as the most environmentally friendly travel destination.
The award ceremony for the 2023 National Geographic Travel Readers’ Choice Awards was held in Madrid on April 25. The winners were revealed at the event, which was a significant occasion for Costa Rica. A group of business experts conducted the selection process and reduced the number of applicants to 55 finalists. Voting then opened up for the various categories. It is noteworthy that the nominees selected by the readers met the requirements for selection, which included a dedication to authenticity, excellence, and a sustainable future.
The main selling points for National Geographic were the abundance of Costa Rica’s ecosystems and the nation’s commitment to protecting them. Costa Rica makes a fantastic vacation destination for those who love the outdoors because of its advantageous location between two oceans and its spine of volcanoes. According to a National Geographic article, a trip to Costa Rica offers tourists the chance to hike through forests teeming with an astounding variety of bird and animal life, stroll along beaches ringed by mangroves and lined with sand where turtles lay their eggs, and scuba dive in crystal-clear waters home to a wide variety of marine life.
It is important to note that Costa Rica competed against other nations who were vying for the prize in the same category. Notably, it engaged in conflict with countries like Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, and Oaxaca (Mexico). Despite this, Costa Rica triumphed because of the region’s exceptional natural beauty and the concerted efforts made to preserve it.
