Beautiful and temperate. - Nov 2015


Warm all year. The ocean gets pretty cold from November-April, depending on your preference. There is a rainy season from May-November, but it seldom rains all day. It will rain hard for a few minutes, long enough to flood all the streets, then the sun comes out again. - Jun 2015


Stereotypical Caribbean island. In the winter it sometimes gets down in the 50's F and only the Canadians swim. But most of the year it gets up in the 80's or 90's F. We get some rain most weeks, more in the summer. The only place I've worn a jacket is in my office. - May 2015


The summer is usually in the 90s with lows in the 70s. In the winter you can expect highs in the 70s or 80s with lows in the 50s or 60s. Occasionally a cold snap will come along and push lows in the the 40s. Hurricane season runs from June through November and The Bahamas is regularly affected. 2 hurricanes hit the islands in 2010, though neither did significant damage. - Jan 2011


Usually in the 80s. Winter can get a bit chilly, down in the 50s. Bring a space heater for the winters if you feel the cold a lot. - Mar 2010


The weather is very nice. In the summer its hot and humid and it rains often. But in the winter its between 50 and 80, which I like. - Feb 2009


High 70's (F) in winter and high 90's (F) in the summer. It rains a lot here from August through November and hurricanes are a real concern - come prepared. - Dec 2008
