Generally, the Carnival Victory will still be coming here as well as a few more but not much. That is why the winter season is from December 15 to April 15. You should plan around the ships itinerary. When a hurricane is approaching and is going to affect an island the ship usually diverts to another island. You believe that the Captain will bring the ship to an island that a hurricane is affecting? No one can tell you that the rain will not fall but what we can tell you is that it will be hot. This is the Caribbean so it will be hot. At night during the month of December it is a bit cooler. In August or July the sun is slightly hotter but not that overbearing. The best time for you to come is from December to April and maybe until May since the hurricane is from June 1 to November 30.

The weather will be beautiful and warm, and the heat is tempered by the Trade Winds. . There will be fewer people. And the best part is that when you get back, spring will be right around the corner (or there, depending on where you live). Although you might have rain (actually, at anytime of the year) it will be gone quickly. June through November tend to be rainier, and the hurricane season starts around August. Of course, global warming might be having an effect on this - it was much cooler last year in February than normal. And by the way, we bought our tickets for this year's cruise last October. Because of the recession, if we were to buy the same tickets today, the cost would be about $1,000 cheaper! Maybe they'll take pity on us and offer an upgrade... Have fun! March or April.

I prefer May because its not too hot and its right before hurricane season. The best time for you would be spring or late fall or winter.

The weather is beautiful most of the time. It depends partly on what islands you plan to visit, but basically any time other than hurricane season is a good time to visit the Caribbean.
