Why the Green Season Is the Best Time to Visit Drake Bay, Costa Rica

🍃 1. Nature Is at Its Most Beautiful

During the Green Season (May to November), the rainforest transforms into a lush, vibrant paradise:

Rivers and waterfalls run full and clear

The forest bursts with color and life

Birds sing louder, and the air smells fresh and earthy

For nature lovers and photographers, there’s no better time to experience the jungle in its purest state.

 

🐒 2. Wildlife Encounters Are More Frequent

With fewer people on the trails, animals feel more comfortable showing themselves.
From our very own lodge, guests often spot:

White-faced and howler monkeys

Scarlet macaws, toucans, and hummingbirds

Coatis, frogs, tapirs—even anteaters

And if you venture into Corcovado National Park, chances are high you’ll see species most travelers only dream of.

✨ 3. Bioluminescence: A Nighttime Wonder

One of the Green Season’s hidden gems is the bioluminescent phenomenon in the ocean. On nights without moonlight, our guests can take a special boat tour and swim among glowing plankton—a magical experience that feels like swimming through stars.

 

🧘 4. Peace, Privacy, and a Slower Pace

Imagine walking through the jungle without another soul in sight. The Green Season offers:

Quieter trails

Empty beaches

Personalized tour experiences

Intimate moments with nature

It’s ideal for honeymooners, solo travelers, and anyone seeking meaningful disconnection.

💸 5. More Value Without Sacrificing Quality

Traveling in the Green Season means:

Lower airfare to Costa Rica

Discounted tours and packages

Greater availability and flexibility

Personalized attention at Drake Bay Greenleaf

We offer seasonal specials so you can enjoy luxury without breaking your budget.

 

☀ Will It Rain All Day?

Not at all. Mornings are typically clear and sunny. Rain often falls in the late afternoon or evening—just in time to relax in your private bungalow and listen to the sounds of the jungle.
