Weather & Waves
One of the questions we hear most often is: “What will the weather and waves be like?”
☀️ Dry Season (December – April)
🌴 Rainy Season (May – November)
Don't let the name fool you—rainy season doesn't mean it rains all day. Mornings are often sunny and beautiful, with showers more likely in the afternoon or evening. The rainforest comes alive, waterfalls flow stronger, wildlife is abundant, and the entire region turns a vibrant shade of green. It's also the season many surfers look forward to, thanks to more consistent swells and excellent wave conditions.
Located on Costa Rica’s remote southern Pacific coast, Pavones enjoys warm temperatures year-round, typically ranging from 80–90°F (27–32°C). Some days are glassy and perfect, others are wild and dramatic—but that's part of what makes this place so special. Whether you're here to surf one of the world's longest left-hand waves, explore nature, or simply disconnect and recharge, every season offers its own unique experience.
