What to Pack for Costa Rica

We recently spent a week in Costa Rica, and knowing how to pack was key for a fun trip of adventure and island fun! These three cute costa rica outfits should carry you from day, to the beach to island dinners out!

The Costa Rica outfits are broken out into a fun day dress that could double as a beach coverup, a swim suit outfit perfect for exploring the outfit and then cute Costa Rica outfits for dinner!

Dresses to wear in Costa Rica need to work for very hot weather! But color is perfect for this island! This cute dress can double as a bathing suit coverup for heading to the pool or the beach.

This bronzing stick has become a summer favorite — it dries matte and give you a pretty tanned glow. Put it all over your body if you want – but be sure to bring a makeup brush to blend it in with!

Among the most important outfits for Costa Rica are ones you can be active with. Since there is so much to explore, you’ll want a one-piece bathing suit that is functional along with some athletic water shorts to throw on on top of them.

Water shoes are an absolute must. Some of the beaches are fairly rocky, and some excursions like tubing will require them. These are the water shoes I wore and they were perfect!

Knowing how to pack for Costa Rica has a lot to do with knowing how to weather conditions change, and being ready to jump in the gorgeous water!

For me, the best clothes to wear in Costa Rica are colorful. The sunsets on the island are incredible so this gorgeous skirt matches those on-fire skies!

Add in some gold hoops likes these, a gorgeous rattan clutch and my favorite nude lipstick and you’re ready for an evening under cafe lights and the stars with a drink!
