Costa Rica February
Costa Rica February Weather:
February is one of the most popular months to vacation in Costa Rica—with good reason!! Most of the country is well into the “dry season”-experiencing plenty of sunshine and warm weather. What more could a vacationer from the cold northern climates ask for??
The Guanacaste Region is still the driest region in the country, but the rest of the country is also in the driest part of the year, with the exception of the eastern Caribbean coast. You will find mid 80’s to mid-90’s on the Pacific coast region with San Jose about 10 degrees less and Monteverde/Arenal area about 20 degrees less than the Pacific Coastal region. You can plan most all the wonderful activities these regions have to offer without much worry of rain!
The Northern and Southern Caribbean areas will be the rainiest regions of the country in February, but still many activities can be planned if you are prepared with raingear for an afternoon or early evening shower.
Costa Rica February Reservations:
February is in the high season and one of the most popular months to travel to Costa Rica. Many people from colder climates need the mid-winter break of beautiful sunny beaches and lots of activity! Book very early (a year to 6 months is not too early). The best hotels with the best value for your money are booked months in advance.
Costa Rica February Costs:
February is high season and high season pricing will prevail. You can get the most for your money by booking early to beat “price increases” and get the best hotel values.
Costa Rica February Holidays and Festivals:
2/15- Fiesta Diablitos- “festival of little devils” during the last 2 weeks of February. There is a re-enactment of the battle between the toro(Spanish troops) and the diablitos (boruca Indians). Beautiful hand carved masks are worn along with traditional costumes. Food and fireworks complete the festivities in Rey Curre (south of San Isidro de El General)
2/17- Ash Wednesday
2/23- Carnival & Festival del Mar – week of celebration in Puntarenas and Quepos with food, dancing, and sporting events.
