The Central American country currently has 33 tourism development centres, with the government hoping to identify another five to grow this to 38 in 2025.
Speaking to TTG at WTM London on Wednesday (6 November), Costa Rica’s tourism minister William Rodriguez confirmed potential new destinations include beaches and mountainous areas in the south of the country.
However, he declined to elaborate on which destinations were in the running to join the programme. Each new destination receives investment from their local government.
