About the time in La Fortuna
Sunrise today lands at 06:20 and sunset at 06:13 local time, giving 11h 53m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (-8.48, -78.62) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in La Fortuna.
If you are coordinating from another country, the shortcut is the working window: a normal La Fortuna day of 09:00–17:00 falls between 14:00–22:00 UTC. Convert your own hours into UTC once and you can tell at a glance whether someone there is likely to be at their desk.
La Fortuna sits at latitude -8.48, in the tropical band, so day length here swings only a little between midwinter and midsummer — today's 11h 53m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
