Costa Rica's tropical climate means the dry season generally falls between December and April, a period that suits evening outings. The island's food scene leans on fresh seafood and tropical fruit, which pairs well with a taco bar setting. Reaching Costa Rica typically involves flights and ferries from the mainland, and Spanish is the main language spoken, so a few phrases help. Tamarindo itself is one of several nearby places, alongside Santa Teresa, Manuel Antonio, Jacó, Puerto Viejo, La Fortuna and Monteverde.
