Our Costa Rican Southern Zone Deep Dive is underway!

Our editorial team is making its first trip of the year – what we hope will be the first of many – to Costa Rica’s Southern Zone. During the week, we’ll be exploring Sierpe, Drake, Golfito, Puerto Jiménez, Pavones and San Vito, and gathering information to help us plan future forays into this extraordinary region.

We are so grateful to the readers who shared their suggestions with us, and would welcome additional ideas for stories to cover, business leaders who might like to get involved, places to highlight, and more. Contact us at kstanley@ticotimes.net.
