Jaco Costa Rica Weather

Jaco is located on the Central Pacific Coast of Costa Rica, at sea level. Its lush hills can be seen from the beach, and as you travel inwards the vegetation changes. It starts out as dry tropical forest and turns into a rainforest. The temperature here oscillates from a maximum of 34°C (93°F) to a minimum of 20°C (68°F).

Rainy season goes from May through December, and the hills and vegetation are even more verdant and lush. Due to Costa Rica’s proximity to the equator, hours of sunlight are 12 hours a day every day, with just a few minutes’ variance, no need for daylight savings here.
