Enjoying The Last Weeks Of Summer

(Infowebpress) Costa Ricans and foreign residents alike are taking advantage of the last days of radiant sun and gorgeous sunsets characteristic of the dry season or summer here.

Along with their families, friends or as couples, tourists visited the Guanacaste beaches last week, taking advantage of the Holy Week holidays.

The National Meteorological Institute (IMN) estimates that by late April or early May, the transition to the rainy season or winter will begin in Costa Rica. However, it is expected that rain levels will be lower than in previous years.

The truth of the matter is that even during this month, some very hot and humid days have welcomed beach travelers, reaching at times 37 degrees Celsius in Guanacaste — even though a strong breeze that blew in various regions of the country placated the stiffness of the weather.

Despite the fact that the abundance of sunshine is taken advantage of by many to get a “natural” tan, health experts recommend to avoid overexposing to strong sun rays, as this could lead to skin cancer and other health problems, including serious burns.
