The Caribbean islands make up
a large subcomponent of the hundreds of islands in the
Caribbean Sea, forming a wide arc between Florida in
the north and Venezuela in the south, as well as a barrier
between the Caribbean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean. Varying
considerably in size, the islands are scattered over
thousands of square kilometers of sea.

Most of the Caribbean is considered sub-tropical. It
is nice all the time! (almost) Average temperatures
are usually between 65 and 85 degress fahrenheit for
most islands, for most of the year. Tourist "season"
generally coincides with winter in the Northerm Hemisphere,
from about November to April, but the Caribbean has
become a year round vacation stop. The official hurricane
season runs from August to November, but August storms
are rare. You can find more weather info and links on
Caribbean-On-Line Weather page. |
