Northern Zone Costa Rica: Climate
 |
| Northern Region, Costa Rica |
The climate in the Northern Zone of Costa Rica goes a long way in making the northern plains so special. Misty cloud forest environments, verdant rolling hills and a fantastically fast lake make the region a must on any visit to Costa Rica.
The ideal way to visit the region is by car. The landscapes as you drive along twisting roads make for incredible photographs. The mild 70F weather you'll find here is refreshing, especially when arriving from the coast.

| Guanacaste, Costa Rica |
A striking characteristic of this area is the dramatic contrast in topography. The Cordilleras, or ranges, of Tilaran and Guanacaste set off the beauty of the Guatuso, San Carlos and Tortuguero Plains. Several small and medium-sized rivers that range throughout the plains make the region very fertile. Fruit trees, rice paddies and cattle ranching are practiced by the residents. Yet there are many expanses of protected areas dotting this Northern region.
