A Blue Zone is a location where residents enjoy an extraordinarily long, happy, and healthy lifespan. Costa Rica happens to be one of the five countries with their very own blue zone on their Nicoya Peninsula, and proudly stands as the largest in Latin America. The Nicoya locals’ gracious way of living and the unhurried ambiance surrounding them contribute to a lifestyle where people live effortlessly, very often surpassing the 100-year mark. It is in faith, food, and function that they find their life’s purpose, focusing on balance, social interactions, and eating less meat. One big contributor is the high calcium content in the water, which can be consumed directly from the source. The region is filled with yoga and wellness institutes, allowing residents to connect with nature and maintain a peaceful, tranquil lifestyle that slows the aging process.
