You will probably find your happiness whether in Guatemala or Costa Rica at this level. However, it all depends on the sports activities that you like.
For hikes, two destinations are equal. Indeed, in Guatemala you can hike on volcanoes and in particular the Acatenango volcano, Pacaya or even do the Indian Nose at Lake Atitlan.
In Costa Rica, you will have the possibility of hiking around volcanoes or in nature reserves such as Monteverde, Tenorio, Arenal for example and many others.
Le Costa Rica is the perfect destination for activities such as canyoning, rafting or zip lines.
On the side of water sports, diving is more interesting at Costa Rica than in Guatemala, but it is even more interesting in Belize.
For the surf, you can enjoy it on the Pacific coast of both countries but the Costa Rica is a world famous spot for its beautiful waves, and in particular in the Nicoya peninsula.
