Antigua & Barbuda Tourism

The island has warm, steady winds, a complex coastline of safe harbors, and a protective, nearly unbroken wall of coral reef. The expansive, winding coastline is where today's trekkers encounter a tremendous wealth of secluded, powdery soft beaches and coral reefs. Temperatures generally range from the mid-seventies in the winter to the mid-eighties in the summer. Annual rainfall averages only 45 inches, making it the sunniest of the Eastern Caribbean Islands, and the northeast trade winds are nearly constant, flagging only in September. Low humidity year-round.

 

Aruba Tourism Authority

Aruba consistently ranks as having the least amount of rainfall in the Southern Caribbean. The calming trade winds will keep you cool in the pleasant 82-degree weather. Thanks to our location outside the hurrican belt, visitors can expect reliably great weather throughout the year. Our island is also alive with sights, sounds, and culinary delights found on no other Caribbean island. Friendly people eager to welcome and embrace you, surprising natural wonders to explore, and countless ways to relax and indulge your wild side. Just a few of the many reasons you'll find "Your Happy Place" on One Happy Island.
