Costa Rica Earthquake – felt here but no problems

Written by Costa Rica Las Villas on September 6, 2012. Posted in Las Villas de San Buenas.

Yesterday a 7.6 earthquake shook northern Costa Rica (Guanacaste), about a 7 hour drive from Las Villas de San Buenas. Although the earthquake was felt here in San Buenaventura there was no damage to any structures.

Everything is moving forward as planned here at Las Villas de San Buenas. Pura Vida!!

Here’s a link to an article explaining that strict building codes in Costa Rica are one reason why there was such little damage.
