We choose Feb. last year to go to the Osa, as that was the month with the LEAST amount of rain there.

5.75 inches in Feb. compared to 27+ inches in October!
We did get a down pour, but it was perfect timing, on the boat to see dolphins. We were in our bathing suits anyway & already getting wet from the boat ride. So getting further wet was no biggie. It only lasted a short while & then all was nice again.
Pack a few of those dollar store rain ponchos. They fit in your pocket & do the trick nicely. Big enough to go over back packs etc. Enjoy!

We were in the Osa in February a couple years ago and it rained only once during our 4 days. Poured in the middle of the night - but it was very cool to hear the rain pounding on our tin? roof and think that we were in the rainforest! Next day and all others were just great.

I have been traveling to the Osa for years and usually in Jan and Feb. I spend about 10 days down there every year, sometimes more. I think at best I have had a quick shower once or twice. I usually end up at the Pearl or next door at Iguana after my husband leaves the country. He isn't a beach person and I grew up on the coast so he understands I gotta have my beach time! This will be my first year in a long time that I won't. I'll still be on the Osa at a couple of places so I may stop in for a drink and a hello. Do be careful during the high tide. There can be a strong undertow then. Otherwise it is fun for boogey boarding and body surfing.
Fluffytails- good to see you back! I really enjoyed your trip report and pictures. Are you heading back down?
