Customer Reviews for  'Waterproof Travel Map of Costa Rica'
 
The title says it all - Its a waterproof map - and a very good one.
One may be inclined to think that the waterproof facet of this item is a gimmick, its not. We used this on a two week trip there in August and it was raining almost every day.

The map is great, it is not only useful in getting you where you are going, it is useful in finding things to do. There are so many national parks in Costa Rica that you only need to pull out your map and find the nearest.

Recommend to all.
 
Detailed Local Roads
This map is great compared to other costa rica maps due to its detailed cut outs of specific areas like Monteverde, Arenal, Tamarindo, etc.
 
The only map you need
This map successfully got us from San Jose, thru La Paz to Arenal, to Punta Islita, to Tamarindo, to Liberia...mostly up-to-date, very few times did we need to stop and ask or backtrack (pretty much inevitable at some points in Costa Rica). Very helpful with not only roads, but landmarks, hotels, restaurants, etc. Highly recommended and highly durable.
 
Excellent Map
Good detail and waterproof, (but not with a heavy laminate, more like a waxy coating). Highly functional.
 
Costa Rica Lifeline
This Costa Rica Map is one of the better maps I have used, and it is waterproof. I think the roads shown will be easy to find due to the clarity of the printing, and the phrases printed on the "outside" of the map could be lifesavers off the beaten path. Just the phrases are worth the money for easy help when you are getting lost. Good Product....
