The dry season's pleasant weather and little to no rain is perfect for beach days and outdoor activities. It is also a peak season with higher costs.

Green, a.k.a. Rainy season is quite long, with rains almost every day. Some times they are short, other times can pour all day. But the rainforests are especially lush and wildlife rich, so it's still a good season to vistit if you are prepared. The rainiest months are September and October. November is a transition month with frequent but short rainfalls.

We suggest starting your gastro tour from San Jose Central Market. One of many of its gems is a busy ice cream stall that has been delighting customers since 1901 with its mind-blowing vanilla ice cream.

Next is Soda Tala and its combo plates with Gallo pinto, egg cakes, and the option of cheese, meat, or sausage with tortillas.  

Another option would be checking Sikwa Restaurante, where Chef Pablo Bonilla serves some of the best Costa Rican cuisine cooked using local ingredients.
