Arenal Volcano Eruption - December, 2005
September, October, November & December is rainy season in Costa Rica but usually the weather is clear in the morning with an hour or so of rain in the afternoon & clear skies at night. The volcano was very active tonight with lava flowing down every 2 minutes, large & spectacular flows on several different paths, all on the west side. The full moon helps a lot for taking night shots.
Eruption Date: Wed Dec 14 2005 16:00:00 GMT-0800 (Pacific Standard Time)
Check out our Arenal Volcano Map for an update on the volcano’s current activity. It did, however, enter into a resting phase in 2010. At present, no eruptions are occurring.
There are a number of excursions in Arenal that allow for close viewing of the Arenal volcano. These include hikes through the Arenal Volcano National Park and the 4-in-one Arenal excursion, which includes a trip to the waterfall, a volcano hike, and a visit to one of the area’s hot springs.
