Spanish is the official language, and Costa Rican Spanish is known for its use of vos and the phrase pura vida, which visitors will hear constantly. Costa Rica drives on the right, and intercity buses are the main form of public transport, making San José a practical base for reaching Tamarindo, Manuel Antonio, Jacó and La Fortuna.
Gallo pinto, rice and beans fried with onion and coriander, is the standard Costa Rican breakfast, and coffee has shaped the country's economy since the nineteenth century.
