March in Costa Rica is still part of the dray season. This means there is a lot less rainfall in many parts of the country. However, the downside to this is that it can be exceptionally hot and humid in some areas. Some will also say that March also marks the end of the busy season. In my opinion, this is only partly true. You still have large groups of tourists anywhere you go, there is just a little less of them in the more remote places.

April in Costa Rica is still very much part of the dry season. So much so in fact, that it is one of the dries months for the Caribbean coast. The result of this is very little rain and some really hot days on the coast. April is when I would personally classify the end of the high season.
