"The sea, the great unifier, is man's only hope. Now, as never before, the old phrase has literal meaning - we are all in the same boat." - Jacques Yves Cousteau, Oceanographer.
Who doesn't love a beautiful white sand beach? There's something about a beach with sparkling white sand and clear turquoise water that warms the heart.
Guanacaste, a province in northwestern Costa Rica bordering the Pacific, is known for its beaches and biodiverse parkland. Its Santa Rosa National Park is home to rare dry tropical forest, surfing sites and some 250 bird species. Guanacaste's endless beaches include the main beaches in the Gulf such as Coco, Hermosa and Panama which all have dark black sand, but just around the corner you will find a stunning white sand beach accessible only by boat. And that's exactly where our students headed today - to Playa Jicaro!
Playa Jicaro has excellent snorkeling and the water is super calm, like a pool. Perfect for discovering the gorgeous RED starfish pictured. Back home, Monday greeted us with a President's Day snowstorm, but we sure are grateful to have these beautiful images to warm our hearts!
