Luxury holidays in Limón Province

When to go

Limón Province is in the tropics, enjoying warm temperatures year round, with tropical rain showers, regular but short-lived. The award for wettest month goes to July; coolest is January; hottest – that’s you August, and September and October share top honours as the driest months.

Getting there

• Planes

  The province’s gateway airport is Limón airstrip, served by regional flights. San José’s Juan Santamaria International Airport (SJO) is five to six hours away by road. At five hours distant, David regional airport may tempt you with proximity, but the complications of crossing the Panamanian border make this option worth resisting.

• Automobiles

  The roads here are well maintained and signposted, although airport transfers aside, you may find that organised tours, borrowed bicycles or taxis to town are all the transport you need.
