When is the best time to visit the Caribbean?
The best time to take a cruise holiday to the Caribbean depends on the region you want to explore and the specific experiences you’re seeking.
The peak tourist season in the Caribbean runs from mid-December to mid-April when the weather is consistently warm and dry, making it an excellent choice for beachgoers and water sports enthusiasts
The shoulder seasons of late April to early June and September to early December offer fewer crowds and pleasant weather, although there is a higher chance of encountering occasional rain or hurricanes during the latter period. If you’re a fan of marine life and underwater adventures, consider visiting during the summer months.
It’s also essential to consider factors like local holidays, festivals and peak tourist seasons. It’s always a good idea to consult with one of our cruise agents who will give you the best advice!
