Visitors can expect the driest weather in the northern Pacific region known as Guanacaste. While the dry season begins early and ends later some years, in general, visitors can expect the best weather from the beginning of December to the middle of April with temperatures ranging between 80 and 100 degrees and an average of 82 degrees. So while Guanacaste, in the Pacific, retains the title as the driest part of the country, the Caribbean gets doused with daily tropical rains for most of the year. This is almost entirely thanks to the five mountain ranges running from north to south splitting the country into different climates. But the proverbial "dry season" is not the same throughout the entire country.
