Cuba's climate is tropical, though moderated by trade winds. In general (with local variations), there is a drier season from November to April, and a rainier season from May to October. The average temperature is 21 °C in January and 27 °C in July. Cuba lies in the path of hurricanes, and these destructive storms are most common in September and October.
When to go
Best time is from November till April, because you avoid the hurricanes and hot summer, but this is the reason why other tourists come here in this period so it's crowded and the prices are higher.
