Costa Rica Travel Adapters
Costa Rica is a country in Central America bordered by Nicaragua to the north and Panama to the south, with coastlines on both the Caribbean Sea and the Pacific Ocean. The capital city is San José, located in the country’s central valley. Costa Rica is known for its rainforests, national parks, volcanoes, and extensive biodiversity, and it has become a major destination for eco-tourism and outdoor travel.
Costa Rica uses mains electricity supplied at about 120 volts at 60 Hz. Wall outlets use Type A and Type B sockets. Travelers from regions that use different plug types should bring a compatible travel adapter. Visitors should confirm that their electronic devices support 100–240V input or use an appropriate voltage converter if necessary.

Adapter types are listed because they are encountered in at least some installations. Presence may be partial, legacy, mixed, or situational. No plug type is excluded due to limited or declining use.
