Costa Rica : When to go ?

If the best time for a trip is the dry season (avoid the Holy Week in March or April), however, it must be known that during the wet season, or "green season", prices are much more affordable and the tourists a little fewer, especially in May and September (July and August corresponding to the holiday of Europeans). On the other hand, rains can be supported.
