Costa Rica has only two seasons: dry and green! The dry
season with very little rain is generally between late December and
April and the green or wet season lasts the rest of the year - May
through November, but still offers an average of about 5 hours of daily
sunshine. The Caribbean coast doesn't have this extended dry weather and
stays green all year round and due to the humidity, tends to be a little
oppressive sometimes. The Central Mountainous Region is more temperate,
like the spring-like weather in San Jose, below.
