Nayara Springs

April is the dry season's closing chapter and the timing within the month matters considerably. The first two weeks deliver conditions close to March: good morning volcano visibility, dry trails, accessible hiking. The second half sees the first wet-season storms building from the Pacific side, arriving as afternoon thunderstorms that grow more frequent as the month closes. The Cano Negro Wildlife Refuge lowland channels to the north begin filling as early rains move across the plains, and the guided boat float through the refuge starts offering better wildlife returns.
