Costa Rica partnership
We've partnered with the Costa Rica Tourism Board to promote this beautifully biodiverse country, which has become a leader in conservation and ecotourism.
In Costa Rica you can find your sanctuary – a home away from home – from immersing yourself in nature and boosting your wellbeing to exploring the culture and adventuring through this rich and diverse land. You can get a taste of this sense of sanctuary right here at the Eden Project in the new Eco Lodge exhibit in our Rainforest Biome.

New to our Rainforest Biome
We’ve worked with our partners, the Costa Rica Tourism Board, to create an Eco Lodge exhibit, creating a Costa Rican sanctuary within the Eden Project. The lodge is situated deep within the Rainforest Biome, close to the waterfall, and brings to life Costa Rica’s commitment to eco-tourism, acting as a showcase of its sustainability credentials. A simple, relaxed ‘lodge’ style building has been created, using natural materials to fit with the tropical backdrop. Vibrant tropical planting, including Heliconia, Brugmansia and Anthurium will invite visitors to discover more.
The exhibit tells the story of Costa Rica’s eco and biodiversity themes, complemented by Eden’s own continuing work with the Matambú Forest Reserve, as part of Costa Rica’s reforestation programme. Eden’s ambitious plan is to continue the regeneration of this forest, and expand it further to encourage the return of wildlife (including jaguars and tapirs), working with local communities to create a region which is sustainable both environmentally and economically.
Encouraging sustainable tourism to help spread the message of regeneration around the world is a vital part of this vision.
