Best time to cruise the Bahamas
Mid-December through mid-April is peak: highs in the high 70s to low 80s °F, clearer skies, and the best beach and snorkel conditions. Crowds and fares spike around spring break and winter holidays (Junkanoo season runs December through January).
May through November is warmer and wetter, with hurricane season June 1 through November 30. Cruises run year-round from Florida; late April through early May and November (before holiday sailings) can offer a balance of decent weather and softer pricing than peak winter weeks.
