February in Costa Rica

Hot and dry on Pacific, hot and showery on the Caribbean

This is an excellent time to travel to Costa Rica - less crowded than January, so easier to find space in the most popular destinations. It is hot and dry throughout the Pacific coast, and central lowland areas are also very warm. Up in higher-altitude areas of the Central Valley, temperatures are a few degrees cooler and in the cloud forest it can be very cool at night. On the Caribbean side of the central mountains, it is still fairly wet. Costa Rica has a huge range of microclimates, so be prepared for the weather to change due to the local topography and altitude, even if you are travelling short distances.
