CPI FLAMINGO
OUR SCHOOL ON THE GUANACASTE COAST
CPI Flamingo in Guanacaste is our newest
campus, a beach option, allowing CPI students to experience three very
different
areas of Costa Rica while studying with the same high quality program. The
province of Guanacaste is renowned for its breathtakingly beautiful beaches.
With its white sand and crystal blue water, Flamingo is perfect for swimming,
snorkeling, scuba diving, fishing, sailing, and just relaxing on the beach.

There
is a considerable North American community in the town of Flamingo itself;
however, the nearby rural towns of Brasilito and Portrero are primarily
Costa Rican, and this is where our homestay families are located. Flamingo
is a
5-hour bus ride from San José, with public buses leaving the capital
daily at 8:00 a.m., 11:00 a.m., and 3:00 p.m. The private
shuttle service that CPI uses, leaves San José for Flamingo every
Sunday around 1:00 p.m.
The average daily temperature is 32° C (90° F). The climate is hot with fairly high humidity; we recommend shorts and summer clothing. Click here for more information on WHAT TO BRING.
In Flamingo, students have the opportunity for serious Spanish study in a vacation environment. Please note that our 5.5-hour class program is not available in Flamingo.
TOURS IN GUANACASTE
In Guanacaste students may visit the local
reserves of Santa Rosa and Palo Verde, classified as dry tropical forests,
ride horseback along the beach and surrounding mountains, visit Guaitil, a
local community dedicated to the production of artisan ceramics, visit dozens
of beautiful beaches located on the Guanacaste coast line, and participate
in a variety of aquatic sports.
