Easiest border crossing for Visa renewal?

[wintex]

Hello all. Looking for information on border crossing, the easiest either north or south. We will be in San Jose for 4 months so need to leave the country after 90 days.

Any suggestions on the easiest one or two day trips to achieve this. Thanks for any info. Cheers Derek

You can drive, take a turismo van, fly or take a bus to either Panama or Nicaragua. If not flying, based on recent posts about the increased requirements at the Panama border, I would head to Penas Blancas and cross into Nicaragua. If you want to stay out of country for 3 days (as most people think you are required to do – not true) then I would suggest taking a cab from the border to San Juan Del Sur (for a beach retreat) or Granada (for a beautiful colonial city with many things to do and visit). Another option would be to take the cab to Rivas, then the ferry to Ometepe Island in Lake Nicaragua – it is very unique, beautiful and inexpensive.

safe travels,

The absolute easiest way is to take a Nature Air return flight out of Pavas airport in either direction.
