Best eSIM for Americans visiting Costa Rica
Costa Rica draws Americans chasing adventure and nature
Zip-lining through cloud forests, surfing on the Pacific coast, and spotting wildlife in Manuel Antonio or Monteverde — Costa Rica is a genuinely active destination, and data matters more than usual for safety and navigation on remote roads.
Costa Rica's mobile coverage
Costa Rica has decent 4G coverage in San José and major tourist towns like La Fortuna, Manuel Antonio and Tamarindo. More remote rainforest and mountain areas can have limited or no coverage — worth planning for offline stretches.
How much data for Costa Rica?
Why data matters more here than usual
Costa Rica's roads can be winding and poorly signed in places — live GPS navigation is genuinely useful for safety, not just convenience, especially if you're self-driving between destinations.
The AUD price advantage for Americans
Proost prices all plans in Australian dollars, which typically works out cheaper in USD terms than the listed price suggests, once you account for the exchange rate.
