Airfare & Ground transportation
Purchases made at the Blue Spirit Cafe or Gift Shop
Any shopping you may do or meals you have off campus are not included.
You will need a valid passport to travel to Costa Rica, but you will not need a Visa if you are coming from the US, Canada, or the European Union. The drinking water is excellent at Blue Spirit as it is in most of Costa Rica, and no additional vaccines are required. If you’re planning to spend time off site, you may want to get some Costa Rican Colones, although US dollars are widely accepted both at Blue Spirit and in the surrounding community.
You are NOT required to have a Covid Vaccine to come on this retreat.
Blue Spirit offers lodging options with and without A/C, and the common areas are primarily open air, no A/C. Fans are provided in the rooms without A/C, but only you know yourself. If you’re quite accustomed to a cool sleeping environment, you may prefer a lodging option that includes A/C. We have never felt overburdened by heat in any of the lodging options.
Beach clothing & yoga clothing (that dry easily). Proper dress is required in the dining hall, so a beach cover-up may be useful for the afternoons. You may bring your own Yoga Mat, but mats are also supplied by Blue Spirit. We suggest bringing a travel mat to lay on top of the ones provided, and/or a yoga mat towel. Choose shoes that dry easily and can easily slip off such as crocs and havianas. You can leave your shampoo and soap at home because luxurious and eco-friendly options are provided (and required) to help protect the natural environment at Blue Spirit. Beach towels are available for purchase in the gift shop. There are no laundry facilities, so we recommend packing accordingly. Basic toiletries are also available in the gift shop if you find that you’ve forgotten anything.
- Fly into Liberia (LIR), a 2.5 hour ride from Blue Spirit. You can arrange round-trip shuttle transportation with Blue Spirit, which is very comfortable and safe.
- Fly to San Jose (SJO), and book a one-hour charter flight or hire a shuttle, a 4-5 hour ride form San Jose to Blue Spirit.
