Las Catalinas, Costa Rica
Las Catalinas is a new beach town located on the Guanacaste Coast of Costa Rica. Its purpose is to create a way of life that is healthy, sustainable, fulfilling, and fun. It is a place where it is easy to connect with other people, and with nature itself.
Charles Brewer, who is developing this paradise, has and continues tobe a big supporter of BeyondALS.
He and his team believe that the people of the world desperately need a new vision of what “the good life” is all about.
The vision of the last few decades of “more and more stuff, more and more isolated” isn’t working. Ecologically it is a disaster. It isn’t measuring up so well in terms of human health and happiness either, leaving us socially fragmented and personally disconnected.
This new vision of the good life needs to be ecologically sustainable. It needs to be healthier – enjoying our physical selves, being physically active. It needs to be more connected – connected to nature and connected to other people. It should celebrate and revel in beauty. Las Catalinas is meant to be a place where this vision can flower, spectacularly.
There is something magical about coming out of your front door and finding yourself in an engaging place where you can socialize, take care of your daily business, and recreate, all under your own power. There is something magical about having unspoiled nature right there at the edge of town, connecting you to its rhythms and energy. There is something magical about being surrounded by beauty. They want more people to experience this magic.
Las Catalinas truly is a paradise for a wide range of outdoor activities!
