Costa Rica climate is warm on the Caribbean coast and cool in the interior.
Limon, also known as Puerto Limon, is the dominant western Caribbean cruise port for the country.
The chart to the right shows that Limon maintains average high temperatures in the mid 80s Fahrenheit through the year.
Average lows hover in the low 70s.
Rainfall is heavy in this Central American country, which results in lush rain forests.
Rain is especially heavy in July and December -- averaging more than 16 inches each month.
Anyone taking a western Caribbean cruise will find that late winter to early spring is a good time for Costa Rica weather.
September and October also tend to have lighter amounts of rain, which is unusual for any country that lines the Caribbean Sea.
