Costa Rica fin mai: itinéraire en fonction de la météo?

This discussion is in French, the community’s main language.
Original post
bonjour
nous partons au Costa Rica pour 15 j le 26 mai
la première semaine "organisée " nous fera visiter tortuguero , saraquipi réserve de la selva , arenal et rincon de la vieja
ensuite nous rendons le véhicule à l'aéroport et nous avons une 2° semaine en "routard "
que nous suggérez vous de connaître en fonction du temps à cette période :nous voudrions éviter de nous trouver sous de fortes pluies!
nous aimerions bien voir la côte caraïbe et pacifique et voir au moins un autre volcan et bien sûr étant amateurs de photos , tout ce qui est chouette de voir et photographier!
pensez vous nécessaire de louer un 4X4 et si oui pouvez vous nous conseiller des adresses de loueurs pas trop chers? l'idéal serait que ce soit à l'aéroport puisque nous y serons le jeudi 3 juin
pouvez vous nous dire aussi comment sont les prises électriques là bas : le matériel photo nécessitant des recharges fréquentes ...!
bien sûr si des noms d'hôtels nous sont proposés, nous serons ravis
nous vous remercions d'avance pour l'aide que vous pouvez nous apporter
amicalement

Bonjour,
Nécessaire de louer un 4x 4 ? Oui bien sur, ou alors en bus, mais en aucun cas une voiture citadine!
Pour adresse d'un loueur sérieux, voir "toutcostarica.com"
La cote Caraibes: nous sommes déja un peu en saison des pluies, ce qui veut dire qu'il pleut pratiquement toutes les nuits, parfois le matin, rarement dans la journée.
A voir: Cahuita parc National, village indien de Yorkin, cascade de Bribri, Plages de Manzanillo, Ponte des tortues géantes à Gandoca, Bocas del toro
La cote Pacifique:
A voir:Le village de Tarcoles, avec le tour sur la rivière pleine de crocodiles et d'oiseaux, les aras rouges devant l'hotel Carara, le parc Carara. A éviter, Jaco, Manuel Antonio, Quépos.
Autre volcan: vous pouvez tenter tôt le matin Poas ou Irazu, , tout près de San José.
Prises électriques: type américain, en 110 volts, aucun problème pour recharger vos appareils en 220, il suffit d'acheter un adaptateur qui vaut 1$, pas besoin de transfo.
Noms d'hotels: voir "toutcostarica.com" et http://casamoabi.blogspot.com/ rubrique "nos partenaires"

Fin mai, il y a très peu de touristes, vous n'aurez aucun mal à vous loger sans réservation, restez libres pour aller ou bon vous semble en fonction du temps.
Le tabac et l'alcool tuent, le travail aussi! Prenez des vacances!
Hola Dany!
Apres ta 1ere semaine, tu seras a l'aeroport a Alajuela, je te suggere le Volcan Poas ~ 20KM de l'aeroport. Je te souhaite de la meteo clemente a Arenal car s'il fait nuageux, tu ne verras rien, le Volcan sera cache dans les nuages et tu ne pourras pas apprecie les coulees de lave le soir a la base du volcan. Malheureusement ce fut le cas pour nous, nous avons quand meme visiter le centre ecologique Danaus a la Fortuna et fait une balade sur les ponts sureleves a Monteverde.
Maintenant, tout depend de ton budget pour visiter en 2e semaine. Naturellement, je ne connais pas tes gouts .
Pour avoir visiter la cote Sud du Pacifique, de Jaco -->Quepos--> Manuel-Antonio, c'est tres different de la cote Sud des Caraibes, de Cahuita-->Puerto-Viejo--> Punta Uva-->Mananzillo. Le petit Parc a Manuel Antonio, qui se fait en a peine 1 1/2 heure de marche, c'est de la petite biere! C'est rien! et il y a une multitude de guides pour te persuader de prendre le tour!, on l'a fait pour le plaisir, je comprends pourquoi, ils sont tous equipes de longues jumelles auxquelles tu peux brancher ta camera pour reperer les quelques bestioles que tu vas rencontres. A part les capucins qui sont plus presents, il, faut vraiment avoir l"oeil pour voir de quoi.
Le PArc, a mon avis, est beaucoup vante mais je ne trouve rien d'excitant, on l'a fait 2 fois en matinee car nous adorons marcher et nous trouvions le trajet court. On en a plus vue avec Rene qu'avec le guide du Parc Manuel Antonio.
Perso, nous avons de loins prefere l'ambiance authentique des Caraibes. Mais a chacun ses gouts!
LA cote du Pacifique mi sud, c'est plein d'americains, c'est plus cher, les plages sont bondees de monde, les Caraibes par contre , c'est plus relax, plus authentique a mon avis,
Naturellement, en louant un 4x4, tu seras libre de visiter + en - de temps (louer un 4 x 4 ~350-400$US/sem),
Si, comme nous, tu aimes la nature et les animaux, nous avons beaucoup aimes le Parc De Cahuita et le Parc Mananzillo sur la cote des Caraibes, nous avons sejournes 5 jours chez un francais, Juan Rene qui vit la bas depuis 2 ans et qui possede un gite, la Casa Moabi, a Playa Chiquita, bon prix et tu peux te faire ta bouffe car la cuisinette est disponible aux clients. ~ 6KM au sud de Puerto Viejo. Nous avons adores.
Rene, c'est un hote sympathique, il aime les animaux, il etait prop d'une animalerie en France jadis, il connait les "spots" a visiter et nous en fait voir des notre arrive, tu lui donnes ce que tu veux comme guide. On en vu beaucoup avec lui. Plaongee en apnee, voir les Rascas (poisson lion tres venimeux), pecher de la langouste, pecher des oursins, etc...Et c'est un excellent photographe. Ce fut notre coup de coeur.
http://casamoabi.blogspot.com/search/label/Accueil
On y retournera sans doutes l'an prochain avec extension vers les Iles du Panama, Boca del Toro, Bastamiente, etc... . Le parc de Cahuita, c'est 3 heures de marche, 7Km, Manazillo est tres bien aussi, plus pour le decor sur le bord de la mer.
Pour la pluie, on ne peut jamais predire! Le Voltage au CR est 110V, alors un covertisseur 220/110 avec adapteurs sera suffisant.
Bon Voyage!

bonsoir rené
j'ai oublié de te demander s' il vaut mieux prendre des dollars que es euros ?
est-ce que l'on trouve des dab facilement ? c'est peut être le mieux pr avoir des colones ?
merci encore
dany

Il est préférable d'amener des $, avec lesquels on peut payer directement dans de nombreuses circonstances.
On trouve des dab un peu partout, pais pas partout, et il y a souvent la queue devant!
Sur tout, ne pas changer d'argent à l'aéroport, ou l'on se fait totalement escroqué.
Le tabac et l'alcool tuent, le travail aussi! Prenez des vacances!
Bonsoir,
A gauche, playa Conchal (Guanacaste) en mai 2009. Rien que pour nous. A droite, les prises qu'on peut trouver (trop rarement !).

Hi,
We're leaving on June 19th for an 8-day road trip in South Iceland. I've heard that even in summer, it's cold and the weather can change several times a day. Should we mainly pack winter gear, like a K-Way, fleece, down jacket, beanie, etc.?
Thanks for your tips!

We’d love to visit Georgetown and the beautiful beaches of Langkawi from mid-September to early October, but we’re worried it’ll be a real steam bath 🥵

Hi there,
For those who’ve experienced it, what’s the weather like in Shanghai at the end of December? I’ve heard it’s cold, but coming from France, is the winter milder than in Lyon, for example?
I’m tempted to spend the Christmas holidays in Shanghai and the surrounding areas (Nanjing, Suzhou) with my family—kids are 11 and 2. It’d be a bummer if the little one catches a cold over there.
Generally, is this a good time for simple family visits to the main spots, restaurants in the city, indoor heating, and outdoor walks?

Hi everyone, I’m planning a trip to Mauritius—anyone have advice on when to go? I’m thinking April, May, or June for my stay. Which month would you recommend for the best beach weather, sunbathing, and exploring the island? Thanks!
Hi,
we’re planning to travel through Patagonia (Chile and Argentina) in February and March 2027.
From a seasonal and weather perspective, at that time of year and with hiking as our main activity, is it better to explore Patagonia from south to north or the other way around?
Thanks in advance.

Hi everyone,
I’ve planned a three-week itinerary for this summer, from August 9 to 27, in Sri Lanka: Negombo – 1 night Sigiriya and the Cultural Triangle – 4 nights Kandy – 2 nights Ella – 3 nights Tangalle – 6 nights Colombo Airport – 1 night
I know this isn’t the ideal time for the south since the beach conditions aren’t great, but we’ve booked a hotel with a pool and won’t be swimming in the sea. We want to relax after all the travel since we’re bringing our two kids, aged 6 and 8.
I know the east would be better, but (i) I’m struggling to find suitable accommodation, and (ii) it adds a lot of travel time, and my kids can only handle about 3 hours at a stretch.
I looked into Arugam Bay, but it’s a 7-hour trip back to Colombo from there.
I’ve checked every weather site imaginable, but they don’t all agree. Do you think we’ll spend our whole trip in the rain, or is the monsoon in the south mostly limited to the sea, as I’ve read?
I’m worried about ending up in the middle of a natural disaster with my two young kids, given recent events.
Thanks for your advice! S

/hello, coming from China-Beijing - on 07/04 we're thinking of heading to Korea for 3 weeks. First off, we'd like to know what to expect weather-wise
hi
After reading quite a few posts and buying a guidebook, I’m still struggling to finalize my suitcase.
Given that we’ll be visiting both islands during our road trip and suitcases aren’t exactly expandable,
I’ve noted that temperatures can be changeable—but should I pack more winter clothes than summer ones?
Thanks for your help

Hi there. On my itinerary from São Luís to Jericoacoara, I’ll be passing through the Lençóis. Is there any point stopping there this time of year? Apparently, the lagoons are dry, but aside from the lagoons, is the surrounding landscape still interesting enough to warrant a 1- or 2-day stop? Thanks in advance for your help.
Hi,
We’ve booked our flight tickets and we’re leaving from October 29th to November 13th for Mauritius.
I just reserved our accommodation in Cap Malheureux.
We’re used to hot and especially very sunny destinations like Oman, Jordan, Uzbekistan...
If you can reassure me about the period—can we expect sunny weather? I’m really dreaming of discovering Le Morne Brabant under beautiful sunshine...
Thanks
Hi everyone,
I need to go to Sri Lanka at the end of January.
I’ve seen that many roads, hotels, and parks were closed after the cyclone, which unfortunately caused a lot of damage.
Does anyone have more information?
Would it be wiser to postpone our trip?
Thanks, Alain.
Hi,
I’m planning a trip to Oman, probably the first half of February to avoid the extreme heat and Ramadan.
But after checking various weather sites and reading accounts, I’m a bit worried about rain, which can apparently be frequent and heavy in February. I’d love to hear from travelers or locals who’ve been there recently.
What would be the ideal month to explore Oman without extreme heat or rain? November?
Also, it’s best to avoid visiting the wadis on weekends—does that mean Saturday and Sunday?
Thanks in advance for your tips!

Hi everyone,
This year, 2026, I can only get away in April and May. I never travel during these months usually, and from what I know, they aren’t the best for India. But in such a big country, there are always spots that are better than others weather-wise.
Which region would you recommend? Given that I’ve already traveled quite a bit in this country, and in any case, I’ll be discovering places I don’t know yet. No need for a major tourist hotspot or luxury comfort.
I was thinking of Meghalaya???
Up north?
Thanks for your ideas!

Hi everyone,
We’d love to return to India next year for 3 weeks (we visited Rajasthan about fifteen years ago). Unfortunately, we’re tied to traveling in September, and our initial plan was to explore Himachal Pradesh. However, it seems like that might not be the best month for this region.
Could you share your experiences from that time of year in Shimla, Manali, Dharamsala, or even the Spiti Valley—in short, anywhere in Himachal Pradesh? Otherwise, which region of India would you recommend for a September trip?
Thanks so much!
Hi everyone, I’m planning a trip from mid-January to the end of February but I just can’t make up my mind 😕
I’ve looked into a few different options: Brazil, Cambodia, and Ecuador. The last one really appeals to me, but what’s making me hesitate is the risk of our trip being a bit too rainy (literally ),
We’re more drawn to the Andes, exploring colonial cities, typical villages, markets, and a bit of the coast. We’ve already gotten a taste of this in Bolivia, Colombia, and Chile. Plus, we’d love to do part of it by car since we’re used to driving at our own pace and stopping whenever we feel like it. Anyway, time’s running out, and I need to decide so I can finalize a route and book the tickets!!
Can anyone help me make up my mind or decide to postpone it for later? But for this year, I don’t have any other time slot to travel. Thanks for reading this far! !
Hi there,
I’ve planned a trip to Asia for the first half of November. I’ll arrive in Singapore at the start of November for about 3 days, and I’ll leave from Bangkok in mid-November.
In between, I’d like to gradually head north to visit some less touristy islands on the Thai coast.
Since the weather is a big risk during this period, I’d love to hear your recommendations.
I’m looking for: sunshine, snorkeling, beaches, nature / jungle in places that are easily accessible without too much transport to make the most of my trip.
Thanks for your tips!

Hi there,
We’re planning a trip to Chile this coming August and would love to head down to Chiloé. We’ve heard that as we go further south at this time of year, the weather gets pretty rough.
What’s the weather like in Chiloé in late August/early September? What activities can we do? And which ones become really tricky because of the weather?
Thanks in advance for your tips!

Hi everyone!
So great to be back on this forum after being away for—I don’t even know what!
I’m planning a trip to Malaysia in July with my 5-year-old son. The thing is, I’m not sure which coast to choose. AI keeps telling me east one minute and west the next. Which spot is least affected by rain during this time?
Thanks a bunch

Hey everyone! 🙂
Just giving you the quick context: A group of friends and I are planning a trip to South Korea (Seoul/Busan) at the end of June/July next year. It falls right in the middle of the monsoon season, but we don’t really have other availability options.😕
I’d love to hear from people who’ve visited the country and these cities during this period—basically, is it not as bad as it sounds, or should we just cancel our tickets (we don’t mind the heat, it’s mostly the rain that scares us).
I know there are plenty of indoor activities, but do you think we’ll still manage to get a few sunny days, or will it be torrential rain for our entire 2-week trip?
The only other country we’ve visited during the rainy season is Brazil (in the northeast) around the same time, and honestly, aside from a few really annoying downpours, we had sunshine most of the time and it was awesome. That said, the climate is totally different, so I’m not sure how relevant the comparison is.
Thanks in advance to anyone who takes the time to read or reply to this post! 🙂
Hi everyone.
Not sure if guidebooks, agencies, and other tour operators are keeping up by changing their visiting hours and offerings.
Personally, I see a promising opportunity here—jumping on this adaptation to extreme climates before others do, since they’re inevitably coming.
From my own travel experience, I’ve met a few guides so far who are starting to adjust, like in Egypt, Kenya, Senegal, and elsewhere.
They avoid crowds and the hottest hours by starting their tours around 6–7 AM, when it’s cooler.
Yeah, you’ve gotta wake up early, but the payoff is so worth it. 😴
If you’ve got any great tips like this, why not discuss them in this thread and share addresses or websites where the people in charge have realized climate change is real and are adapting? 😊
Hi there,
I’m planning a trip to Namibia in 2026.
I’m torn between visiting the Fish River Canyon and the Caprivi Strip / Victoria Falls.
I’d also love your advice on the best time to travel for wildlife viewing and pleasant weather.
I haven’t chosen a tour operator yet... since I’m traveling solo, I’d prefer a small-group escorted trip. Has anyone traveled with a local agency and what’s your feedback or advice?
Thanks so much!
I’m taking a month-long trip to northern Argentina throughout September. Buenos Aires, Iguazu, Salta, Humahuaca, Cafayate, and if time allows, La Rioja. I’m unsure about what clothes to pack. What are the temperatures like in September?
Thanks for your great tips!

It seems that in recent years, January and February in Bohol have seen an increase in rainy periods. Have any of you noticed this?
Thanks in advance for your replies
Hi there,
I’m thinking of visiting Cap Corse in the second half of February, specifically Rogliano. Renting a house.
I’ve been told, “Oh no, not a good time—it’s the season for strong winds, Mistral, Tramontane, etc.” What do you all think? I’m now hesitating

Hello, We’re heading to Finnish Lapland near Rovaniemi as a family at the end of February with two kids (8 and 14 years old). We’ve got direct flights with Luxairstours. The itinerary is already set, but I’m wondering if anyone has traveled with Luxair before and knows exactly what kind of clothes they provide on the second day? The agency just told me it’s a heavy-duty cold-weather suit. I’m thinking we should get Sorel Caribou boots, maybe second-hand. Here’s what I’ve already planned:
- Thermolactyl leggings and tights from Damart for the whole family as a base layer.
- A first layer of Damart socks + Nordic Stocks socks in 70% merino wool for all four of us.
- Loose fleece layers, including some Polartec.
- Ski pants for hikes.
- For my son and me, a The North Face Himalayan down parka with a hood.
- A ski parka for my husband and my 14-year-old daughter (she *really* wants a Roxy one—I hope it’ll be warm enough).
- For myself, for the flight and the first day at Santa’s village, I’ve packed The North Face winter hiking pants, a long-sleeve merino wool top from Decathlon (thin), a fleece, and my big parka.
I’m wondering if I should just pack fleece joggers or sweatpants for the kids and my husband, at least for the first and last days, to be comfortable on the plane? I’m also planning to buy balaclavas and neck warmers in addition to our beanies, as well as mittens for all of us. I really need advice because I have no idea—I’ve never been skiing! Also, for a 4-night, 5-day trip, should I pack a second set of base layers, like from Odlo?
Of course, I’ll be leaving cotton clothes out of the suitcase.
As you can tell, I’m someone who gets cold easily—especially my feet, hands, and ears—so that’s my biggest worry. I *don’t* want to be cold, even at -20°C during dog sledding, snowmobiling, or aurora hunting when we might be standing still. We won’t be in the city, and the kids will likely spend most of their time outside, as they usually do.

Hi there!
I’m planning a 10-day trip to Greenland in early August.

Thanks!😊
