Activities and Attractions
Foreigners can enjoy several cultural and entertainment activities in Costa Rica. The country offers a wide array of ecological tours (cheaper for residents, including retired foreigners) and trips to national parks as well as beaches and volcanoes. Dominical boasts eight beaches within an hour's range, each with its individual characteristics. Surfing, of course, is what Dominical is famous for, but as one of the few Costa Rican beaches with lifeguards, swimming is also a favorite activity. Day trips to nearby national parks, bird-watching, scuba-diving, fishing and horse-back riding tours provide rich opportunities for exploring nature. While a small community, Dominical also offers proportionately large selection of restaurants, live music, movie nights and English-theater options.
