When to go to Osa Peninsula
December - April
Although hot and humid all year round, the best time to visit is from the end of December to the beginning of April when rainfall is at its lowest. Sea temperatures of 28°C and consistent outside highs of 30-32°C make this a brilliant time for combining the ocean with wildlife spotting in the reserves.
