Best time to visit the Caribbean

Pick an island to see a month-by-month guide to weather, hurricane risk, and prices – so you can time your trip for the best sun, the best value, or both.

Ideal Good Fair Risky

General guidance from typical seasonal averages – always check a live forecast before you book. Hurricane season runs June 1 to November 30 (peak August-October); a storm in “season” is the exception, not the rule, and travel insurance is smart in those months.
