Costa Rica Weather

No matter if you are renting one of the many Costa Rica vacation rentals or visiting one of the many Costa Rica hotels you can always find the weather report by visiting this page.

Costa Rica's year round climate is pleasant with naturally occurring breezes cooling down most of the coastal areas. Temperatures in the highlands and the mountains are warm by day and brisk at night, giving an "eternal spring" feeling. The average annual temperatures range from 31.7°C (89°F) on the coast to 16.7°C (62°F) inland. The rainy, or "green season" lasts from approximately May to November with noticeably drier days during the rest of the year.

Many people ask what the general time periods of high and low season are. While most people define this slightly differently, it usually corresponds with the dry/green season months. The dry season usually begins in late November and continues through mid-April. The rains here end in November and grow heavy in September and October. While the months of August and September can be exceptionally wet (though some travelers do not mind at all), the beginning and end of the green season are, in our opinion, some of the best months to travel to Costa Rica. Prices are down, the foliage is green and there are fewer tourists. During these months you can count on rain in the afternoons, though it is usually still beautiful from 7am to 2pm. Green season mornings are breathtaking.


According to Radio Dos, a Costa Rican radio station, Jakob Dylan, the the youngest son of legendary singer songwriter, Bob Dylan. Wrote the song, Costa Rica, during his last visit to Costa Rica, while watching a sunset. Although he has not yet released it, it is already gaining a large following here in Costa Rica.
