Nope, sorry, it's still part of our hemisphere and, therefore, you are not going over either the Atlantic or Pacific.
You're going ABROAD but not going OVERSEAS. When people say they've been overseas but they've just been to Central America or South America, I feel sorry for them because they appear sort of ignorant about geography. If I am in a bitchy mood, I feel like saying "OK, so exactly WHAT sea did you cross?" |

"Overseas" typically connotes travel across an ocean. Since Costa Rica isn't, the term doesn't apply. |
|

Well the term actually means beyond or across the sea. But I usually use it meaning any foreign country.
Are you going to get to go to Costa Rica? |

Yes, you're going overseas - gulfs are often considered seas. Mostly, though, all that really matters is whether you need to take a passport in order to get back in. |

Meh

Well, I think it does apply since the term "overseas" means going into another country. So yes, the word does fit it even though it may not seem like it. |
