When is the best time for a budget trip to San Francisco?

The hottest months are usually March and April, with an average temperature of 20°C, while the coldest months are January and February, with an average of 19°C. The rainiest months in San Francisco are October, June, September and August, with each month seeing an average of 650 mm of rainfall.
What is there to see and do in San Francisco?
You won't need to spend a lot to get to know San Francisco. You can budget for the local attractions that interest you most, and then make time for activities that cost little or nothing at all. Hunt for bargains with some shopping at Mercado Central and San Pedro Mall, or check out the area's cultural spots like National Museum of Costa Rica.
How can I get to San Francisco and get around on a budget?
Scoping out the transportation options in San Francisco can help keep you on budget. The most convenient airport is 4.6 mi (7.4 km) from the centre in San José (SYQ-Tobías Bolaños Intl.). However, if that doesn't suit your budget, you can look into flights to San José (SJO-Juan Santamaría Intl.), which is 9.8 mi (15.7 km) away. San Francisco may not have many public transport options to choose from so a car rental could be a reasonable alternative to see the area.
