Hello,

We invite you to share some information regarding leisure activities that are free or low-cost in Costa Rica. This information will give future expats (or even current expats) an idea regarding some of leisure activities that they might not be aware of.

Is there a way to find out about free or low-cost fun activities in Costa Rica, such as a specific app, or a newsletter, or magazine, tourism board, etc.? How do you find out where events are organised?

What are the most common free leisure activities in Costa Rica?
Which free activities do you recommend for children, for teenagers, for adults, and for seniors?

Are there certain days where access to paid activities are offered at a lower price or even for free, such as museum entry, or exhibitions, or a theme park, etc.?

How do you maximise your leisure activities in the most cost-effective manner?

Thank you for sharing your experience,

Priscilla

Several free entry museums are housed in San José. Check this website for more suggestions

Once a legal resident with a cedula, the cost to enter the National Parks is much lower than while still a tourist.

sorry there is nothing low cost in costa rica. it cost as much as Albuquerque NM for rent and more for food at Automercado and anything else one wants to enjoy in the city. but the beaches are still free.
