The Central Pacific region is a distinct geographical region, a thin, virtually ruler-straight coastal plain narrowing to the southeast and backed by steep-sided mountains. The coastal is lined by long gray-sand beaches.
There are marked wet and dry seasons along the Pacific coast. The rain season is from May to November and then the dry season start on December for the following months.
