Is Costa Rica Safe? Why You Need Travel Insurance

I get travel insurance for every trip i do both local and international trips. It’s like 65$ or something. And yeah CR is hella safe.

Soooo....this is an ad for some travel insurance. Got it.

My MIL broke her foot & ankle in Montezuma and had to be flown to San Jose, it was very expensive… get the travel insurance

You could get sick or break a leg anywhere. If travel insurance is important to you get it. That has nothing to do with the country you’re visiting.

Depends on what you are concerned about. Petty theft is common. If you leave stuff around it will vanish. Tamarindo and some other towns have some limited drug related crime. What I would buy insurance for is medical evac. You dont really want to end up in a hospital for anything major. Its cheap insurance and covers evac to USA on private aircraft.

DAN (scuba diver insurance) covers travel too, not just scuba-related incidents. For those that travel to Latin America for scuba.

Mods?

Travel insurance is a must on all vacations. I live in Mexico and it’s really common for people to end up making go fund me accounts begging for money as they had an accident and didn’t have insurance.

Most travel insurance is a huge ripoff.

Car rental insurance is a whole different issue that should not be tagged on this post. People should inform themselves about that in other posts on here.
