The whole of Costa Rica is subject to a subequatorial climate, Jaco is no exception. The rainy season in Jaco lasts from May to November. From December to April, on the contrary, there is a dry and sunny period.
Due to the fact that the exotic Costa Rican resort is located on the coast of the Pacific Ocean, rainfall here is much higher than in other regions of Costa Rica. When the rainy season begins in Jaco, the air temperature does not drop much, so the humidity increases greatly and the city becomes very stuffy.
