Experience the vibrant landscapes and rich cultural heritage of Costa Rica through service and adventure on our Stand UP Adventure Costa Rica summer program. Starting in San José, teens engage in meaningful service with Fundación Humanitarian and connect with local communities like the BriBri and Boruca, learning about their traditions and way of life. This journey takes you from the bustling city to the serene rainforests and stunning coastlines, where you'll hike through Cahuita National Park, raft the thrilling rapids of Sarapiqui, and zipline through lush canopies. Alongside your adventures, you'll earn volunteer hours while working on projects that support indigenous communities, explore eco-friendly farming, and even learn the art of chocolate-making. With every day packed full of new experiences—from horseback riding to La Fortuna Waterfall to soaking in the Baldi Hot Springs—you'll create memories that truly last a lifetime.
