Travel to Costa Rica is easy using many International airlines. International flights arrive
in the main Juan Santamaria airport outside the capital of San Jose or the smaller Daniel
Oduber Quirós airport in Liberia in the province of Guanacaste. Once in Costa Rica, you
can fly to many regional airports via Sansa or Nature Air.
The weather can vary dramatically around the country as there are many
micro-climates. It can be hot and dry in Guanacaste, hot and humid along the
Caribbean, comfortable in the central valley and cool and damp in the higher elevations
and cloud forests. Costa Rica has two seasons - Dry and Green. The Dry season runs
from December through May and the Green season from June through November. This
varies a bit from region to region. The temperature swing from season to season is
minimal and is affected more by the rain and clouds than the time of year.
