Climate
Most of the time the weather is
nice, warm with a clear sky and
strong
breezes to temper the heat.
However from December to
February, it is sometimes too
cold to
stay on the beach, when it is
windy, and the nights are cool.
As the archipelago of Turks and
Caicos is more Southward than
the archipelago of the Bahamas,
its climate is more pleasant.
Most of the rains fall between
April and August (especially at
the
end of the day or during the
night, so it will not spoil your
holiday)
It is a hotter and more humid
period with a few tropical
showers.
The sea is quite rough in winter
(from December to February) and
calm
in summer.
Temperature of the sea :
-----------------------
The sea temperature ranges from
23°C (73°F) in winter to 27-29°C
(80,6/84,2 °F) in summer.
