#and Costa Rica: Your Ultimate Guide

[holidayexpertz]

When selecting a vacation rental in Canada, the Caribbean, or Costa Rica, it’s essential to consider your travel style, budget, and the type of experience you want. Are you looking for luxury, adventure, or a place to unwind? Do you want to be in the heart of a city, on the beach, or surrounded by nature?

For an urban experience, look for rentals close to major attractions and public transportation. If relaxation is your goal, opt for a secluded villa or cottage. Adventure seekers should prioritize properties near outdoor activities like hiking, skiing, or surfing.

Finally, always check the reviews and amenities of the property before booking. This ensures you have the essentials (like Wi-Fi or air conditioning) and helps you avoid unpleasant surprises.

[lets-talk-spirituality]

Hello 👋 I was wondering if I could get a channeled message from my Guides who are my Ancestors? I'm going through a transformation but I don't know how to get from point A to point B spiritually. Some of my abilities have opened up like clairvoyance, I've battled depression for most of my adult life and I might of broken through some of that which I'm happy about! I know I have huge mission for our family because I'm most perceptive and have the time persay. My whole family's intuitive though. Some days it's really hard on me because I put the pressure of expectations upon myself, so if have any sight or encouragement that would be greatly appreciated! Thank you! N.V.W.

Yeah! I actually just got two new decks I’ve been dying to use. Literally perfect timing. Also, I’ve done a post about ancestors.

The way I understand ancestors is that they are like colleague souls who incarnate into the same bloodline. More advanced souls are sometimes called into certain bloodlines that have been upleveling so that they can clear massive amounts of karma and trauma. You can read more about that here.

All that to say, it’s important you understand that your very existence in this life and body is the answered prayer of generations of your bloodline. It’s very powerful to see yourself this way. When you understand the centuries of spiritual and physical work that allowed you to come in and be a generational change maker, it can bring you to tears. The only thing your ancestors want is for you to live the life they never could. We have so much more freedom to travel, to love, to pursue dreams than they had, and we are working to make that even easier for future generations. People get caught up a lot in ancestor work and what I want to say is you honor them by your life. As a woman, every time I speak up for myself, I’m clearing generations of women in my bloodline who couldn’t speak. It’s a lifetime of clearing work because our collective trauma runs deep. You don’t need to pray or do altars or whatever (unless you feel called), you honor them every time you call your power back to yourself.

Ancestors, what do you want to say?

Part of the clearing work you need to do is tied to the pressure you feel. Basically, we felt pressure like you do, we felt pressure to survive in all the ways that entails (I’m getting a vision of a slave, specifically a black American slave and they’re toiling at night by the fire). Your job is to feel that pressure to be more than you are, to carry our weight and to find your way back to lightness and peace. Every time you find your way back to peace in the face of pressure, you heal us a little more, you help us breathe in our own moments.

What people don’t understand is that everything is happening at once. While in your mind, we lived thousands of years ago, we are still partially in all our own timelines. By changing the present you ripple effects to the past and future. You effect our struggles that to you seemed to happen hundreds of years ago. You breathe peace for me, who is carrying water miles to our village (somewhere green and lush maybe like Costa Rica or South America, I’m seeing a naked brown skinned woman with long dark hair walking through a jungle), you breathe peace for the future ones grappling with the climate crisis.

The illusion of time is used to keep us separated, but we are alive in you and you are alive in us, we breathe collectively. This may seem confusing, but ultimately what you need to do is find ways to feel gratitude for the ease of your life that comes from our struggle, our blood, our tears. At your pressure points, breathe, feel the future of the line, feel the past of the line and push forward. Breathe us in. That’s part of why breath work helps so many, our breath and our blood unites us, draw on that power, oxygenate your blood that is ours too.

You are doing just fine. Your concerns are in your head, and we aren’t diminishing your struggles, but what we mean is that you put pressure on yourself by not seeing how you are always moving from point a to point b. There is no stagnant as long as you are alive. Sometimes movement is lateral or looks different. Flowers don’t always bloom, dear one. Neither will you. It’s a part of understanding the seasons and tides of life. Connect more with nature to ground into the rhythm of change. You do have a big mission but it’s not some thing out there, it’s you living right now. It’s you existing. That is the mission.

You feel the weight of your magnificent existence. That pressure you feel from us, that is you feeling our cries to the universe “all those years ago” which are now too. That’s why you must find your way back to peace, to help us heal in those hard moments. We feel your cries too. Isn’t it beautiful when you begin to understand how deeply we are all connected. You need to release expectations about what spiritual growth and about what blooming looks like. So much of humanity in your era has been warped by progress. Rest is still progress. Progress is an illusion that is framed by expectations of improvement. For something to need to move forward it must not be okay where it’s at and everything is always where it’s meant to be.

Don’t progress merely to keep from stillness, instead feel the energy of the activity you are engaging in (for it has its own desires too). Listen to what it wants and flow with it. Is something asking to be created through you, allow yourself to let energies flow through you. Don’t try to control the energies, let them flow and lead. This is how you surrender to the flow of life. You need to separate being from doing, doing comes from being, being does not come from doing. You are doing amazing. Love yourself more. Feel the true gift you are to us and our bloodline. You can cry to us anytime and we will lend our power, our breath and blood to you, it will surge, only do this in the calmest meditative states. It may feel like anxiety when it comes in, trust it. It’s just your system reacting. We love you. You got this. As long as your alive you’re living.

Chakra exploration cards

Solar Plexus— in what ways are you battling self doubt or a lack of self trust?

Healing mantra: I trust wholeheartedly in the spirit that animates me, the heart that guides me, and the path that calls me, I am confidently me

The opposite of fear is trust, the root of trust is love. To me this is confirming back what your ancestors were saying about how this pressure is all in your mind, created by your own lack of trust in your own divinity and that of all that surrounds you.

Crown Chakra— how can you bring more purpose, presence and intention into your daily life?

Healing mantra: I hold the power to direct the energy of my days and consciously craft my most fulfilling and meaningful reality.

More confirmation of what they are saying about coming to understand your place in your bloodline but also in time and space. When you understand the weight of your power and existence, you will begin to feel more purpose.

Crown chakra— when do you feel most aligned and at peace within yourself?

Healing mantra: I’m at peace in this body, I’m at peace in my heart, I’m at peace in my mind & I am at peace in this moment.

Ultimately I believe you have some healing work to do around your crown and solar plexus. Here’s my post on solar plexus chakra for some advice. For crown chakra work, spend time in silence and in nature. Meditate and try automatic writing. It means there’s a block in you receiving divine energy and to unblock that you have to be still enough and quiet enough to create a clear channel.

Would love to know how or if this resonates! Good luck!

Monteverde Cloud Forest

I was woken this morning by an alarm in the room next door going off constantly for over 30 minutes. How refreshing! Our adventure today was visiting a Cloud Forest in Monteverde that spans over 4000 hectares but only 2% of that is open for the public to walk through. Our guide Jean Bonilla took us through the endangered cloud forest and found us some animals and birds to look at. First we saw a lizard and a stick insect that looked like moss, then Jean took us to a spot he already clearly knew about - a partial nest hanging between some branches where a hummingbird was finishing up the work bringing twigs and moss to build it further. The cloud forest is basically a forest covered in cloud but due to climate change they are slowly disappearing and it affects the wildlife that live in them. The cloud forest is an 'evergreen forest' that depends on cloud cover for moisture and humidity year-round to maintain it's flora. There are certain wild avocados with a sweet orange flesh that grow only in the cloud forests that the native bird of Costa Rica, the quetzal feeds off and so they must stay nearby to survive on this diet. The cloud forest is also home to many "strangling trees" that grow from the top down and encase a regular tree. The tree eventually no longer has access to sunlight and will die and decompose inside the strangling tree. Jean found a tarantula hiding away in a hole, we all took turns shining his flashlight on it and looking at the red and black markings on it. The main predator for a tarantula is a wasp that stings and paralyses the spider, the wasp will then lay eggs in the spider and use its body as nutrients to incubate the eggs. Isn't nature fascinatingly gross!

We saw another hummingbird nest, this time the mother bird was feeding the little chicks regurgitated mosquitos. Jean set up his telescope and filmed it on Deme's iPhone since it was undisputed she had the best phone/camera of everyone so she'd get the photos and videos and then send them all to us. We reached a small waterfall where Jean showed the instagrammers of the group how to take the best photo of the flowing water for the ultimate effect. On our walk back to the main lodge and gift shop we passed a prehistoric tree that absorbs extra water like a camel so it can survive for years even without any rainfall to sustain it. We also briefly stopped to look at a different member of the coffee cherry family - the hot lips flower which looks like some red lips! I enjoyed that one so much I found a postcard with the flower to send to Alanna.

After the tour we stopped by Cafe Colibri which is the 'hummingbird cafe'. Basically they have bird feeders hung all around the cafe seating area outside so you can sit and sip your coffee, in my case a mocha, and watch the hummingbirds fluttering around and feeding.

Everything You Need to Know About Hiking the Rio Celeste Trail

The Rio Celeste Trail is one of Costa Rica's most beautiful and unique hiking paths, attracting adventurers, nature lovers, and photographers from around the world. Located in Tenorio Volcano National Park, this enchanting trail leads hikers through lush rainforests, past geothermal hot springs, and, ultimately, to the spectacular Rio Celeste Waterfall. The trail's most remarkable feature is the brilliant turquoise color of the Rio Celeste River, created by a natural chemical reaction between volcanic minerals, making this destination truly magical.

For those planning their visit, here’s everything you need to know about hiking the Rio Celeste Trail, including what to expect, how to prepare, and how to make the most of your adventure.

What Makes the Rio Celeste Trail Special?

The Rio Celeste Trail is renowned for its surreal blue river, which winds through Tenorio Volcano National Park. The vibrant color is the result of volcanic minerals in the water, creating a turquoise hue that stands in stark contrast to the lush green of the surrounding jungle. This unique natural phenomenon gives the trail a fairytale-like quality, drawing in travelers from all over the globe.

Along the Rio Celeste Trail, visitors will encounter not only the famous waterfall but also bubbling hot springs, steaming fumaroles, and dense tropical vegetation teeming with wildlife. The trail is a journey through one of Costa Rica's most biodiverse regions, where every step reveals another breathtaking view or new encounter with nature.

Starting Point and Getting There

The Rio Celeste Trail is located within Tenorio Volcano National Park, in the Guanacaste region of northern Costa Rica. For those driving, the park is about 90 minutes from La Fortuna or three hours from Liberia. The park entrance has parking facilities, and a small fee is required for entry.

If you’re not renting a car, there are guided tours like the Rio Celeste Hike and Waterfall Tour offered by Rio Celeste Aventuras. This tour includes transportation from popular nearby destinations, ensuring that visitors can focus on the hike and the sights without worrying about logistics.

The Hike Itself: What to Expect on the Rio Celeste Trail

The Rio Celeste Trail is a moderate hike, covering roughly 3.7 kilometers (about 2.3 miles) round trip. Most visitors find the trail accessible, although certain sections can be challenging, especially during the rainy season when it becomes muddy and slippery. The path is well-marked, and it usually takes around 2 to 3 hours to complete, depending on your pace and how often you stop to take in the sights.

The first part of the hike leads through dense jungle, where you may hear the calls of howler monkeys, see colorful birds, or even catch a glimpse of a sloth. As you progress, the trail reveals various natural features, including hot springs, fumaroles, and, of course, the famous waterfall.

The Rio Celeste Waterfall: A Natural Wonder

The highlight of the Rio Celeste Trail is the stunning Rio Celeste Waterfall. This majestic waterfall cascades down a 30-meter (100-foot) drop into a serene turquoise pool below. The intense color of the water, contrasted by the surrounding greenery, makes it one of the most photographed spots in Costa Rica.

A dedicated viewing platform provides the perfect vantage point for capturing the waterfall in all its glory. It’s an ideal spot for taking photos, enjoying a picnic, or simply marveling at the beauty of nature. Swimming in the river is prohibited within the park to protect the delicate ecosystem, but just being close to the falls and the bright blue water is an unforgettable experience.

Exploring Los Teñideros

One of the most fascinating spots along the Rio Celeste Trail is Los Teñideros, where two clear rivers converge, causing a unique chemical reaction that creates the turquoise color of the Rio Celeste. Watching this transformation in real time is both fascinating and beautiful, adding an educational element to the experience.

Los Teñideros is located a bit further along the trail from the waterfall and is definitely worth the extra effort. The spot is one of nature’s most remarkable phenomena, offering a rare glimpse into the science behind the beauty of Rio Celeste.

Wildlife Encounters on the Rio Celeste Trail

The Rio Celeste Trail winds through a protected area known for its biodiversity. As you hike, keep an eye out for wildlife like monkeys, sloths, tapirs, and tropical birds, including toucans and parrots. The dense jungle provides a habitat for a wide variety of species, making this an exciting destination for nature lovers and birdwatchers.

Joining a guided tour, such as those offered by Rio Celeste Aventuras, can enhance your experience. Local guides are familiar with the region’s flora and fauna, and they can help you spot animals that may otherwise go unnoticed.

What to Pack for Hiking the Rio Celeste Trail

To ensure a comfortable and enjoyable hike, consider bringing the following essentials:

Sturdy Hiking Shoes: The trail can be muddy, especially during the rainy season, so supportive, non-slip footwear is a must.

Rain Gear: The weather in Costa Rica’s rainforest can be unpredictable. Bringing a lightweight, waterproof jacket is always a good idea.

Water and Snacks: There are no vendors along the trail, so pack enough water and energy snacks for the hike.

Insect Repellent: The jungle is home to plenty of insects, so insect repellent is essential.

Camera or Smartphone: The beauty of the Rio Celeste Trail provides endless photo opportunities, so make sure you have a camera to capture the sights.

Best Time to Visit the Rio Celeste Trail

The best time to hike the Rio Celeste Trail is during Costa Rica’s dry season, from December to April, when the river’s color is at its most vibrant and the trail conditions are optimal. During the rainy season, heavy rains can dilute the river’s blue color and make the trail muddy, but the experience is still incredible for those up for a bit more of a challenge.

Guided Tours on the Rio Celeste Trail

For first-time visitors, joining a guided tour on the Rio Celeste Trail can be a fantastic way to experience the park with ease. Tours, like the Rio Celeste Hike and Waterfall Tour offered by Rio Celeste Aventuras, include transportation, a knowledgeable guide, and insights into the park’s geology, wildlife, and ecosystems.

A guided hike provides an educational and worry-free experience, allowing you to fully appreciate the beauty of the Rio Celeste Trail while learning about Costa Rica’s rich biodiversity and volcanic history.

Final Thoughts on Hiking the Rio Celeste Trail

Hiking the Rio Celeste Trail is an unforgettable adventure that showcases Costa Rica’s natural beauty and unique landscapes. From the stunning waterfall to the blue river and vibrant rainforest, the trail offers a diverse and immersive experience.

Why Papagayo is Our Ultimate Adventure Tour in Costa Rica?

Your love for beach destinations might motivate you to explore the premium economy flights to Bangkok, Thailand, Bali or Dubai. However, you can pack your bags to Costa Rica if all you need is to witness a piece of paradise on Earth.

It is an undeniable fact that Costa Rica is a piece of heaven on earth. Why? The Central American country has the opulence of natural treasures of flora and fauna, the thousand miles of coastlines, the warm people and the spectacular resources that can give the ultimate experience to anglers who love to spend hours on the ocean for their greatest catch. For similar reasons, tourists board first class flights to Sydney Australia where the land of kangaroos has some of the finest beaches enticing the adventure-seekers to their core!

This is the ultimate place for sports fishing! If you are a passionate fisherman or angler, missing the Papagayo fishing trips can be a matter to repent later on. Besides Quepos, Tamarindo, Los Suenos and Samara, Papagayo is one of the top listing destinations for the adventure tourists looking for a once-in-a-lifetime experience in the coastal belts of this Central American paradise.

Here Are 4 Top Reasons why Papagayo belongs to the A-listing destinations among adventure-seeking vacationers In Costa Rica—

Full Day or Half Day Fishing Tours Available

Get a charter boat for the whole day or half a day and experience the best Papagayo fishing from any beaches of the Gulf of Papagayo. Before going out for the offshore and onshore fishing, have a look at the calendars where it is mentioned about the exact time of the fish and its seasons. The guide there in the angler’s club or the fishing resorts can also help you out.

Don’t miss out on all the nearby bays across the Santa Rosa National Park until you reach the Murcielago Islands. Here you can spend some time watching the animals, both marine and terrestrial that are preserved and protected in this biodiversity zone. Buy a packaged tour to Costa Rica just like you do for a Dubai tour package with flight at none other than White Magic Travels.

Tons Of Activities Available

You can contact one of your chosen service providers taking the responsibility of arranging a charter boat and will also be there on shore to provide dependable customer support. In the Papagayo area, there are some great companies and clubs that arrange fun-filled adventure tours such as ATV tours, horseback riding, zip-lining and many more. Besides the offshore and onshore sports fishing, these adventures can be of great fun.

Famous For Bill Fish Hunting

Due to its fertile water throughout the year, the Gulf of Papagayo is one of the best hubs for billfish hunts. You can set out for the Papagayo fishing trips for one or two days in a charter boat to get the biggest trophies weighing between 80 and 150 pounds standards. The boats are equipped with food, great drinks, lunch arrangements, life jackets, snorkelling equipment, and all the required fishing tools. You and your group will have a great time fishing in these waters. 

Enjoy The Relaxation Adventure

After one or two days of fishing onshore and offshore, you can spend some time relaxing on the pristine beaches. You can engage yourselves by playing beach volleyball, football, tubing, and paddle games and you can set out for a snorkelling tour or whale watching.

Your dream of witnessing the first sunrise at the land of the rising sun might lead you to book tickets for the best flights to Far East. However, witnessing the sunrise and sunset from the heavenly beaches of Flamingo, Ocotal, Tamarindo, El Coco, Playa Blanca at Four Seasons and more while listening to the heavenly sounds of the waves and the chirping of the birds inhabiting the Gulf of Papagayo is no less than living that dream!
