For anyone interested in Costa Rica...

The Wet Season drizzles along from May to the middle of November, bringing sunny, summery mornings, splashed by bouts of warm afternoon rain. The wet season is punctuated by a 'little summer' (el veranillo), a short dry season that occurs in July and August. In September and October, look for Los Torrenciales, dramatic downpours that drench the hillsides and fill the rivers to the top. If you plan to drive the back roads during these months, bring your 4 x4 and a sandwich. You may be stuck back there for a while.

The Dry Season begins in the end of November and continues through April. Dry, warm and sunny days march past in endless procession, tempered in January and February by winds cooled by the two seas.


I want to go here but have been weary b/c I heard my HM would be during the rainy season BUTTT it says its dryer in july and august!!!! I think I'm gonna go for it!!!!

The rain might be OK.... gives you an excuse to stay in the room for a few hours

True, LOL. I don't think we'll really need an excuse though. I'm sure we'll be quite busy What area are you thinking of going to?

well the TS book only has about 10 diff hotels to choose from and most say limited exchange so that stinks.... but the areas are puntarenas and guanacaste.... not like id know the difference between them though
