Whitefish High School is going to Costa Rica!

Nestled between Nicaragua and Panama, Costa Rica makes up part of the Isthmus of Panama, otherwise known as Central America.

Combined with its varied topography, its unique location as the land link between North and South America and as the divider of the Pacific Ocean and the Caribbean Sea, this small nation is blessed with an unparalleled diversity of wildlife.

Costa Rica is home to more organisms per area than any other country on earth.

We will arrive in the bustling city of San Jose late in the evening. Throughout our 8 day stay, we will visit cloud forests, stunning beaches, hot springs, waterfalls, and rainforest jungles. We will see an amazing array of wildlife such as Monkeys, Sloths, Crocodiles and amazing reptiles, butterflies and birds. Adventure too with a zip line through the rainforest canopy.

We start our trip with the town of La Fortuna which is near Mt. Arenal and also Tenorio National Park
