Bahamas - Best time to visit

You are here: Caribbean --> Bahamas --> When to go


When to go



In general, the best time to visit the Bahamas is the dry season, from late November to mid-April. However, on the north-western islands, from December to March the temperature is often not high enough for a beach holiday, and sometimes there are also some cool and windy days. On the southernmost islands, however, and in particular in Inagua, the winter is warm enough to enjoy the sun and the sea, while on the northernmost islands you may prefer April and May (though in the latter month the rains are a bit more frequent).
From May to October, the weather is hot and muggy, and thunderstorms can be intense (at least on the northern islands), although the sun is still frequent. If you want to choose the summer, the month of July is preferable both because there's a relative decrease in the rains (though this not happens in Nassau and on the north-westernmost islands) and because hurricanes are less likely than in August.

What to pack



From November to April, on the northernmost islands, bring light clothing, but also a sweatshirt or sweater, a scarf for the breeze, a jacket and an umbrella. On the southern islands, bring light clothes, a sweatshirt for the evening, a scarf for the breeze.
From May to October, bring light, tropical clothing, and possibly a light sweatshirt and a light raincoat for thunderstorms.
When going to the reef, you can bring snorkeling equipment, including water shoes or rubber-soled shoes.
