Winter/Dry Season:If you want the least chance of rain, come to the Cayman Islands in March or April as these are the driest months of the year, with only occasional light rain showers. Accommodation rates are higher though and there are usually more people on the beach during these months. Winter in the Cayman Islands is dry, starting from mid-December and ending in mid-April. Humidity is low, with a day temperature averaging at 75°F (23.9°C) and a night temperature of 68°F (20°C).Summer/Wet Season:If you want the beach all to yourself, visit the Cayman Islands during the Summer/Wet Season, also known as the "hurricane season." Don't worry though, because despite the name, rain usually only lasts for a few minutes to an hour, and usually falls in the afternoon. During this time of the year, from May to November, the temperature averages 83°F (28.3°C). Accommodation rates are cheaper and only a very small number of people are present at the beaches during this period. The summer or wet season is also the best time for diving because the water is crystal-clear and water currents are weak.
Hurricane Tip:If you are visiting the Cayman Islands during hurricane season, which starts officially on June 1 and ends on November 30, it's advisable to get weather updates from satellite forecasts. Big storms are rare but when they do occur, they can cause flooding. Records show that major storms happen only every nine years. There's no reason to worry because in the Cayman Islands regular satellite forecasts will give you ample time to prepare.
