Costa Rica Seasons

Our area of Costa Rica basically has two seasons: the Dry Season (December through April) and the Green Season (May through November).

During the dry season, there is very little rainfall. Humidity is low and there is normally a brisk breeze to keep you cool.

The Green Season was named because the countryside comes alive like the springtime in temperate climates. One can expect afternoon showers most afternoons for about an hour or so.

October and November are the rainiest months, but it really depends on how many tropical waves pass our way. If you are looking for total relaxation with lots of reading and contemplation, these are the months to come.

Temperatures remain nearly constant all year round with temperatures averaging between 80 and 90 degrees during the daytime and in the mid-70's at night.. Most people find it necessary to cover up with a sheet or thin blanket for sleeping.

The coastal waters are an almost constant 74 degrees all year long.
