Santa Teresa (Malpais) 7月の天気

Regulars are specific it genuinely rains most days here this month, though showers typically stay brief, around 15 minutes, sandwiched between mostly sunny, hot mornings and afternoons and a cooler evening. Our row backs that hot, genuinely wet read, 29.9C reading as a scorching 37C, over 25.2C nights feeling 31C, with a substantial 321.2mm of rain across 27.9 days and humidity at 88 percent. Regulars are consistent long-term residents specifically call this arguably the best time of year on the Pacific coast despite the daily rain, the Guanacaste region itself running meaningfully drier than the rest of Costa Rica, surfing and diving trips still genuinely doable around the showers. The sea sits at a bath-warm 30.2C. The record: 9.2 hours of sun, a 9.7 kph wind and AQI 24.

Santa Teresa forum threads describe August as genuinely rainy country-wide, with the typical pattern being sunny mornings, a real chance of afternoon rain, and possibly wet overnight stretches too - posters called mid-August 'nice and wet' rather than a washout. The consistent advice was to front-load activities for the morning and treat the area as a place to slow down and relax in the afternoons. Multiple threads flagged that the heaviest rainy season here doesn't really start until the very end of August into September/October, when some restaurants and hotels close for the slow season, meaning earlier August still runs noticeably better than what follows it.

Forum posters place February and March inside Guanacaste/Nicoya's dry season - genuinely dry and dusty by Costa Rican standards, a sharp contrast to the wetter months later in the year. The typical pattern posters describe even in the dry season: sun and partly cloudy skies dominate, with any rain that does show up more likely arriving late afternoon or at night rather than disrupting daytime plans - the standard advice is to schedule surfing, beach time and outdoor activities for the morning and early afternoon regardless of month. Posters consistently name this Pacific Nicoya Peninsula stretch (Santa Teresa included) as one of the more reliably dry corners of Costa Rica during the dry season months.
