When to Visit

The Bahamas enjoy a subtropical climate, making it an attractive holiday destination all year round. However, the period from December to April, when the weather remains warm and dry, is considered the best time to visit. This also coincides with the peak tourist season, so expect larger crowds and higher prices for accommodations and flights.

The summer and autumn months, from May to November, are typically off-peak due to the risk of hurricanes. However, this season also enjoys warmer quiet beaches and reduced prices, providing a deal for those willing to take a risk. As with any travel plans, it’s advisable to keep an eye on the forecast and make your reservations accordingly.
