When To Visit Barbados
One of the great things about taking a holiday on a tropical island is the weather - being tropical, it is warm and sunny all year round, perfect for enjoying the beautiful white sandy beaches that surround the island.
In January average temperatures range from 21-28 C while in July it is slightly hotter, ranging between 23 and 30C. Rather than having four seasons as we do in England, there are just two annual seasons, wet and dry - but unlike England even in the rainy season there is still plenty of sun and warm weather, and the rain though heavy normally passes after an hour or two.
The wet season in Barbados ranges from May to October, with most tourists choosing to visit between December and April each year. The Carribean can bear witness to hurricanes some years during the wet season - June to October are the most likely months - however years can pass between hurricanes so it need not be too much of a worry.
Since December to April have some of the driest weather they can be some of the most popular times to visit - and the most expensive. A holiday during the wet season may be more humid and prone to the odd heavy downpour but can be just as enjoyable and considerably cheaper.
