\"\"Le Costa Rica est situ\u00e9 en Am\u00e9rique centrale. Il est limitrophe au nord avec le Nicaragua et au sud avec le Panama. A l’ouest se trouve l’oc\u00e9an Pacifique et \u00e0 l’est, l’oc\u00e9an Atlantique (dans la r\u00e9gion des Cara\u00efbes). <\/div>\n
Le littoral irr\u00e9gulier des Cara\u00efbes comporte deux p\u00e9ninsules, Nicoya (au nord) et Osa (au sud).<\/div>\n
Une cha\u00eene de montagnes traverse le Costa Rica du nord-ouest au sud-est formant au centre du pays une fertile vall\u00e9e centrale d’une superficie de 3.000 km² environ. Cette cha\u00eene est divis\u00e9e en trois partie, du nord au sud elle prend le nom de cordillera de Guanacaste puis cordillera Volcanica Central et enfin elle devient la cordillera de Talamanca. <\/div>\n
On trouve au Costa Rica de nombreux fleuves et rivi\u00e8res qui descendent des montagnes pour fertiliser davantage les plaines c\u00f4ti\u00e8res. <\/div>\n
