The 5 Blue Zones of the World - And Why Costa Rica’s Southern Nicoya Peninsula is Calling Your Name

There are only five “Blue Zones” in the entire world - rare places where people live measurably longer, healthier, and happier lives. Researchers have spent decades uncovering the secrets of these longevity hotspots, where centenarians thrive and communities flourish with vitality.

These Blue Zones are:

  • Okinawa, Japan

  • Sardinia, Italy

  • Ikaria, Greece

  • Loma Linda, California

  • The Nicoya Peninsula, Costa Rica

And of all five, few places feel as magical, or as inviting, as southern Nicoya, where lush jungle meets pristine coastline and life slows down to the rhythm of the waves.

Why Southern Nicoya? Where Longevity Meets Lifestyle

The southern Nicoya Peninsula, home to tranquil gems like Playa Tambor, Montezuma, and Santa Teresa, isn’t just another tropical destination… it’s a way of life. Here, the simple daily rituals that contribute to longevity, eating fresh foods, staying active, enjoying strong community ties, are naturally woven into the culture.

  • Nature everywhere you turn: Rolling hills, secluded beaches, and unspoiled wildlife corridors create an unparalleled sense of peace and connection to the land.

  • A vibrant, welcoming community: Expats and locals alike share in the pura vida spirit, where neighbors look out for one another and friendships cross generations.

  • Wellness in every detail: Farm-to-table dining, outdoor living, and low-stress days invite you to breathe deeply and truly live.

A Destination Worth More Than Just a Visit

Many come here on vacation and never want to leave. They realize this isn’t just a great place to spend a few weeks, it’s a place to invest, to retire, and to finally build that dream life they’ve been working toward.
