November in San Isidro, Costa Rica, brings average daily highs of 23°C and overnight lows of 20°C in the 2016–2025 historical record. Pack clothes you can layer as conditions change. The average leaves room for both warmer and cooler days, so a flexible walking plan is more useful than deciding every outdoor stop before you arrive.
In the record, at least 1 mm of rain or snow falls on >29 of 30 days on average, a daily chance of >99%. Make flexibility part of the trip from the outset. Keep time outside easy to rearrange and choose plans that still work if it rains. The monthly figures do not establish whether rain is brief, prolonged or concentrated at a particular time.
The calculated day length, sunrise to sunset, averages about 12 hours. Sunshine averages 8 hours a day. Use the daylight window to plan the length of excursions, and check local sunrise and sunset times for the dates of your stay. Sunshine is a separate measure, and those hours need not arrive in one uninterrupted stretch.
Start with the places you most want to visit, then keep the order flexible enough to suit the weather. Check current opening hours and local transport before fixing long day trips. The climate record can help with pacing and packing, but it does not describe what is open during your stay.
December has an average daily high of 24°C, 1°C higher than November. Its historical rain-day chance is 92%, compared with >99% this month. If your dates are flexible, compare those trade-offs with the kind of days you want. Neither set of averages predicts the conditions of one particular holiday.
