The climate of the Bahamas is subtropical to tropical, and is moderated significantly by the waters of the Gulf Stream, particularly in winter. Conversely, this often proves very dangerous in the summer and autumn, when hurricanes pass near or through the islands.
When to go
The Bahamas is a year round destination.
June to August is a very hot period in southern islands and winter months are cool in north. Peak season is December to April, when prices go high.
Hurricanes might strike from May to November.
