The Caribbean’s dry season (December to April) offers daytime highs of 28–31°C with low humidity, while the wet season (June to November) brings a 30–40% higher chance of showers and a peak hurricane risk from August to October — check the live forecast above for your exact travel window.

What is the typical Caribbean weather by month?

For most islands, temperatures remain stable year-round at 26–32°C. The best months for sun-seekers are December through April, when trade winds keep humidity down and rainfall is minimal. May to November is the wet season: June and July see brief, heavy afternoon showers, while August through October carry the highest hurricane probability. For a detailed breakdown, see our 10-day weather forecast for UK travellers planning a longer trip.

How reliable are 14-day or 30-day Caribbean forecasts?

Forecasts beyond 7 days have low reliability for exact rain timing, but longer-range outlooks can indicate general trends — for example, whether the UK weather pattern is shifting. For trip planning, the caribbean weather forecast 7 days is the most dependable; the caribbean weather forecast 14 days gives a useful direction of travel. Over 30 days, only broad seasonal probabilities are trustworthy.

What is the best month for low rainfall?

February and March are statistically the driest across most islands, averaging 30–50mm of rain. These months also offer pleasant sea breezes and lower humidity, making them ideal for beach holidays.

Is November a good time to visit the Caribbean?

November sits at the tail of hurricane season and often sees reduced storm risk. Expect occasional showers, but daytime highs of 29°C and lower hotel rates make it a good shoulder-season choice — check the live forecast above.

Does the Caribbean have the same weather year-round?

Generally yes for temperature (within a 5°C band year-round), but rainfall and wind vary significantly. The dry season (Dec–Apr) is sunnier; the wet season (May–Nov) brings more cloud and a higher chance of tropical storms.
