Costa Rica Beaches and Marines

I the week from 19 to 26 of May 2011 we the kids of 6 grades make a trip to Costa Rica and we go to a very special place.  Bahia Junquillal, is one of the most beautiful beaches in the world and is awarded with a blue flag.

  Blue flags are very special prizes. Not many countries have blue flags. Blue flags are prizes given to a beach that is almost perfectly clean. There are 3000 blue flags all around the world. They are very special and they are very important for modern day ecology programs. Of those about 3000 or more 72 are from Costa Rica and we go to one of the most beautiful beaches in Costa Rica. This beach has a transparent color and you can see the sand from above of the water.

In this beaches there were abundant animals this were like crabs, birds, and many different kinds of monkeys and many other species that we didn't saw. Bahia Junquillal is one of the most visited natural and ecologic beaches in the whole region of Costa Rica. Costa Rica is one of the most ecologic awarded countries in the actual and past world.

Costa Rica is a country that is almost all surrounded by water because it lies between the Atlantic Ocean and the Pacific Ocean. There where we went was located in the Pacific Ocean. Costa Rica is a country where they take care of there environment. The money we used weapons and things to the army they us it to preserve natural reserves and clean the beaches.

Also in Costa Rica the people help more than here to preserve the environment and the natural reserves. You can prove this by watching the proportions of the amount of natural parks in Colombia and the amount in proportion of national parks in Colombia. Think this Colombia is 20 times bigger than Costa Rica and it have 10 natural reserves and natural parks. And Colombia that is 20 times bigger only have 32 so think if you have in 1/20 of Colombia 10 national parks that's a lot. The conclusion is basically that Costa Rica have 10 parks per each 1/20 part of Colombia. A lot! But Costa Rica has not only blue flag beaches there is a second award given by this organization the blue flag marine. This flag is awaeds the marines that are clean and have special coral riffs, animals and marine plants Costa Rica also have 11 flags of those.

In the beach there were allot of diverse animals like crabs and monkeys.

That is how the Costa Rica blue flags and marines are.
