Romantic Experiences in Costa Rica in 2026: Trips, Weddings, and Anniversaries

Costa Rica's romantic register is nature-based and unusually varied for a small country. The Monteverde cloud forest canopy walk at dawn — when the mist fills the valleys below the hanging bridges and a resplendent quetzal feeds on aguacatillo fruit in the first clear light — is a natural experience of quiet, specific beauty. The Arenal Volcano hot springs at night, with the volcano's silhouette above the steam pools and rain forest sounds surrounding the outdoor pools, provide a spa register specific to this volcanic geography. A Osa Peninsula coastal lodge, with the Corcovado rainforest behind and the Pacific front, is the Costa Rica honeymoon for couples who want wildlife intensity. A private surf lesson and sunset picnic on the Nicoya Peninsula coast adds the beach-and-sport register. It really hits differently.
