Spent 31 days exploring Costa Rica Central and Pacific area wild life and nature superb weather in the south on side of the trip was wetter then I expected in the dry season as you travel north is get drier. Night life is San Jose and some resort areas many places just local bars etc. Main issue is that it is now the most expensive of the Central America countries food and hotels near to but slightly cheaper then the USA food very American, but still a great experience!
