CLIMATE IN COSTA RICA

The summer months or dry season are from December to the beginning of May and during this time is always sunny. The winter or rainy season lasts from May to the beginning of July and from the end of August to the end of November. A typical day at this time of the year has beautiful fresh mornings with sunshine and a blue sky until approximately 4 pm. when it might begin to rain. Showers are no more than one to two hours a day in the evening or at night and it's not unusual to have a few days without rain. At the beginning of October, some strong Hurricanes from the Caribbean side might cause heavy rainfalls in our area that could last for a few days no more. From mid-July to the end of August we have a little summer called "El veranillo de San Juan". The rain stops, and it is summer again until the end of August.
