Afternoon Electives
Each Project Costa Rica Community Service participant selects one of the following activities as an afternoon elective. Each elective operates for three afternoons per week. The other two weekdays are spent doing fun activities in the surrounding area. All of our electives are operated in conjunction with local instructors and professionals for a safe and enjoyable experience.
Costa Rica Days
Experience all that the rainforest has to offer! Each day will bring a new experience, with participants engaging in awesome adventures throughout the area. Some of the incredible activities include an exhilarating waterfall canyoning tour, biking through the lush countryside, tubing down the Arenal River, and hiking to the famous La Fortuna Waterfalls. No outdoor adventure experience is necessary – just the desire to explore and have fun!

Yoga Instruction
Surrounded by the sights and sounds of nature, Costa Rica is a prime location to enlighten your body and mind through yoga. Our instructor will instill in her students feelings of strength, peace, openness, and overall well-being. No previous yoga experience is necessary.
Digital Photography
Costa Rica’s magnificent natural environment is the perfect place to improve your knowledge of digital photography. Along with your instructor, you will spend time each day taking photographs and learning how to better use your camera. Each participant must supply his or her own digital camera.
Soccer Program
Soccer is the most popular sport in all of Costa Rica. There is no better place to improve your game. Your local coach will help improve your skills through drills and matches. All skill levels are welcome and each participant must supply his or her own soccer shoes and shin-guards.
