If a tsunami were to happen, where would it hit, and how far inland would it reach? We’re currently in La Fortuna, Costa Rica.

I felt it, I was in school, it started shaking and I thought my classmate was shaking my desk, but when I looked back, it wasn't them, then I stood up, and then it started shaking violently and we started running out of the classroom
