We're going to Costa Rica. Should I take a skirt or dress? |
Travel Info We're taking our first trip to Costa Rica. I am very excited. I know I will need shorts and lightweight pants, plus a rainjacket. I would like to take a skirt and matching top to wear at night, to be a bit more dressy. I would like to fit in with what locals are wearing if possible, and to be comfortable and hopefully look nice. What clothing would those of you who've traveled to Costa Rica recommend? All answers appreciated, thank you! Travel Tips I bring summer dresses, cotton tee's and tank tops. A couple of pairs of jean skorts (jean skirt with shorts sewn in) and some comfortable sandals. The climate is very hot & humid. The locals dress just like any "american" would. You'll be surprised how current they are in fashion. They wear brand name clothing too. You don't want to overpack so bring liteweight clothing. During the day you can wear t-shirts,shorts,sneakers as long as you feel comfy. I going in July and I've already started packing !! Others Make sure you bring something good for the rain because its rainy season. Also think about some good shoes for the rain. The folks at this site will provide you with a lot of information. Have them call you and ask them to mail it to you. They also have wonderful beach front land at unbelievable prices. You don't need to buy anything, just let them provide you with details. http://www.freedetailsonline.com... Hope this helps. What you mention will fit in very well with the local population as that is exactly how they dress when they go out on the town! Costa Ricans for the most part dress just like Americans do! And unless they are actually talking you would never know who was who despite the fact that over 50% of them speak English. Just do not expect to see any natives with long grass skirts and loin cloths! - you will be very disappointed! a realist and a Tico at heart! Yes bring skirts and/or dersses. At dances the ladies get ALL DOLLED UP. Ticas like to dress pretty. welcome to costa rica'. you can dress the usual over here. a nice dress or a skirt would do. don't worry about that much and just lay back and enjoy the ride. costa rica is an adventure. take care |
