Costa Rica and Santa Teresa are especially suited for solo travelers. Unless you are specifically seeking solitude, there is a big expat community and lots of opportunity to meet other solo travelers in Santa Teresa. Starting your travels at Lapoint is a great way to travel solo and you will be guaranteed to leave with friends for life.
It’s easy to get around Costa Rica with public transport and most people say they feel very safe travelling by themselves. It helps if you know a couple of words of Spanish. But these days a lot of the locals speak basic English and can help you get around. Locals in Costa Rica are super friendly and we guarantee you will love it.
At the camp, around 40% of our guests are solo travelers, so you will always find some nice company for the stay and have a great time!
