Bahamas Weather - Best and Worst Months to Go

Heavy rain in the fall months is a predictable part of Bahama island weather, but it doesn't stop Caribbean vacationers from flocking there.

The islands are the most popular tourist destination in the region - mainly because of the large number of cruise visits embarking from various U.S. ports along the Gulf of Mexico and the east coast.

Bahamas weather is cooler and rainier than most other places in the region.

The average monthly high temperature is about 84 degrees Fahrenheit, according to the World Meteorological Organization. The average monthly low temperature is 69.5 degrees. Temperatures are among the lowest in the region in part because the Bahamas lie north of all other Caribbean destinations.

The average monthly rainfall is among the highest at 4.6 inches a month. The average monthly rain days is nearly 12 per month, also among the highest.

The average monthly high temperatures peak at about 89 degrees in July, August and September and bottom at less than 80 degrees from December through March.

Rain averages about 7.4 inches a month from June through October with a yearly high of 9.3 inches and 19 rain days in August. Rainfall is only 1.9 inches a month from December through March.

Anyone planning to visit the Bahamas who wants to enjoy ocean swimming will want to avoid December through March because of cool weather. Visitors also should avoid June through October - and especially June and August - because of rain. The best weather months to visit are April, May and November.
