When to Travel

Covid-19 Entry Requirements

When to Travel

 Costa Rica has two distinctive seasons; the High (and dry) season runs from December to April, whilst the charmingly named “Green” (rainy) season is from May to November. If you don’t mind getting wet the Green season is usually quieter, cheaper, and in some places even more lush and beautiful.  

When to Book

Covid-19 Entry Requirements

When to Travel

In high season hotels can be fully booked more than six months in advance, and for Christmas   often over a year beforehand. Green season tends to be more flexible, especially   September and October which avoids European and American school holidays.
