Ahoy, me hearties! Howler has some treasured tales to tell in our March issue. We can’t guarantee any of them are completely true — at least not the pirate parts —  but they do have one reality in common. The setting is Costa Rica’s remotest and most mysterious frontier, Cocos Island. So avast ye and all hand hoy! Prepare to be intrigued by the legends and lore behind the tiny island’s allure for relentless treasure hunters during the past two centuries.
We also take a fascinating look at some dazzling real-life treasures that are much more accessible today, even if not readily visible. Explore “What Lies Beneath: Gemstones of Costa Rica” in our Travel & Adventure section, where we also feature a delightful collection of monkey photos.
For expats dealing with a possible or confirmed dementia diagnosis — their own or a loved one’s — we feature comprehensive information about options for care in Costa Rica, along with resources for education and support.
