If you’re planning to travel to sometime soon, you should know that the best time to visit this fascinating country is definitely within the dry season. This time begins in Mid-December and lasts throughout April. If you opt to travel to between the beginning of the dry season and early February you can also enjoy the beautiful lush vegetation dotting the countryside along with the advantages of dry weather. You should also be aware; however, that during this time period some areas tend to be drier than others. This is especially true near Guanacaste. If you plant to travel in these areas be prepared to deal with the dust. It’s a good idea to bring along a hat and sunglasses to keep the dust out of your face and eyes as much as possible.
While it’s best to travel to
during the dry season if you want to avoid the discomfort of the wet rainy season,
if your primary objective is to avoid the throngs of tourist crowds,
it’s definitely better to travel from May to mid-December. This time
period embraces the rainy season and although it’s definitely wetter
during this time period, you will gain the advantage of being able to
enjoy the beautiful vegetation of Costa Rica while at its most lush and gorgeous period.
Traveling to
even during the wet season can be easily managed if you known how to
gauge the weather. For example, it’s typically dry and sunny in the
morning, with the rains coming in the afternoon. So, if you plan to
visit one of the beautiful stretches of beach in
during your travels, be sure to do it in the
morning.
Getting around in
can be a bit tricky, depending on the time of year that you plan to travel. Some of the roads in
tend to wash out during the rainy season; particularly those that are paved without asphalt. If you want to visit some of the more rural areas, make plans to arrange for transportation with four wheel drive. Since many of the top destinations in
tend to be at least a half a day’s drive apart, it’s important to take care of transportation arrangements early on.
It’s also important to know that if you choose to travel to
during the rainy season, that accommodations may be limited. It’s quite common for hotels in rural areas to close for the entire rainy season.
Regardless of which time of year you plan to travel to
, be aware that the temperature tends to range between seventy degrees
and eighty-five degrees. Travel in the jungle means that you’ll need to be prepared to deal with intense humidity. Coastal areas tend to be even hotter, with temperatures typically reaching up into the nineties; with high humidity.
With proper advance planning, your plans to travel to
will be sure to deliver a vacation that will provide lifelong memories.
