Take a gap year in Costa Rica, volunteer, work, study Spanish and travel. Costa Rica is a popular destination where you can enjoy exotic beaches, get up close to wildlife or visit an active volcano.

On a gap year in Central America you could volunteer in Costa Rica, popular opportunities include helping at the Costa Rican Bird Route project in Sarapiqui, working on environmental conservation projects or teaching local communities. Finding gap year jobs in Costa Rica is difficult. An alternative is to take a TEFL course and then take part in volunteer Costa Rica teaching English projects.

Taking a gap year tour in Costa Rica is a great way to travel, highlights include visiting the cloud forest, taking part in adventure sports like surfing in Puerto Viejo de Talamanca or see rare animals at the Parque Nacional Corcovado national park.
