Weather in Cayman Islands



2 mins readOct 21, 2017

The Cayman Islands have a tropical marine climate, and the weather is always beautiful. You’ll enjoy sunshine and warmth throughout the year, but the summer months typically deliver more heat, humidity and rainfall.

Winter (November through April)

Known as “high season” or “dry season,” this is the most popular time of year in the Cayman Islands, with bright sunshine, little rain, and delightful sea breezes. January and February are the coolest months (average high 75° F/24° C; average low 68° F/20° C). November and April are the warmest of the season (average high 86° F/30° C; average low 72° F/22° C).

Summer (May through October)

This is the “off season” or “wet season” in the Cayman Islands, with September and October being the wettest months, but temperatures are also warmer at this time of year, averaging 87°-90° F/30°-32° C. Although increased humidity can make it seem warmer, our clear, calm waters are ideal for diving, snorkeling, sailing and fishing at this time of year, and you’ll enjoy discounted hotel prices and fewer crowds.

Hurricane Season (June through November)

Hurricane season begins on June 1 in the Atlantic, but the Cayman Islands are far enough west that most storms passing through the Caribbean Sea turn northward before they reach us. The water can be choppy, however, particularly during August and September, so take this into consideration if you are planning to enjoy our world-class scuba diving destinations.

Whether it’s warm and sunny or cool and rainy, the weather is always perfect for wine, beer, and your favorite spirits!

If You Get Caught by a Tropical Storm…

Rain showers in Grand Cayman typically clear up as quickly as they arrive, lasting only a few hours at a time. If you’re trying to stay dry, however, try a guided tour of the Cayman Spirits Company distillery to learn about the distilling process for their award-winning Seven Fathoms golden rums that are aged in wooden barrels located seven fathoms underwater, right here in the Cayman Islands.

If you would rather learn how beer is brewed, take a tour of the state-of-the-art Cayman Islands Brewery which has won many international awards.
