Costa Rica is honeymooners’ destination of choice

American magazine Modern Bride has just labeled Costa Rica the number-one destination for honeymooners in the category of Best Adventure, according to an annual poll taken among travel agencies from that Central American country, the Costa Rican Tourism Institute informed.

The selection was based on actual honeymoon sales made worldwide by the different destinations. The magazine describes Costa Rica as the country any couple that loves nature can dream of, chiefly based on its humid tropical forest and impeccable coastlines.

Furthermore, Modern Bride explains that a quarter of the country is protected and the nation ranks 22nd in beach assessment.

Tourism Minister Rodrigo Castro won the Overall Best Entertainment Country during the International Cities Festival held last June on the Cayman Islands.

A total of 23 nations took part in the contest, including such world-class destinations as Mexico and Brazil.
