Celebrate Costa Rica’s Independence
September is a particularly special month in Costa Rica. Independence Day is celebrated on September 15, with festivities beginning the evening before.
In Playas del Coco, the celebrations bring the community together with colorful parades, traditional dancing, music, families, and plenty of Costa Rican pride. It’s a wonderful opportunity for visitors to experience local culture rather than simply observe Costa Rica as a tourist.
The colorful costumes, music, flags, and community spirit make this one of those experiences that can become a favorite memory of a Costa Rica vacation.
