Vacation Seasons In Jamaica - Best Time To Visit Jamaica
Jamaica is one of the largest islands (third by territory) in Caribbean Sea, being also one of the most popular vacation spots in the region. It attracts a very large number of travelers from North America (especially from USA and Canada, but also from Europe and particularly UK) with awesome beaches covered by white sand, exciting leisure activities (the waters around the island hide a large variety of marine species and coral reefs, therefore scuba diving and snorkeling are extremely rewarding in this area), interesting landmarks and points of interests, and very convenient vacation packages to upscale hotels, very demanded amongst foreign voyagers being all inclusive accommodation deals. Another reason why this country benefits on high popularity on the international travel scene is the wonderful Jamaican weather and the low variation of temperature between seasons – the difference between summer and winter is just 10 degrees.
Situated in the Greater Antilles, Jamaica is characterized by tropical weather, which is generally warm and humid. The average temperatures vary between 80–90 degrees Fahrenheit (27–32 degrees Celsius), the highest ones being registered in July and August, while the lowest occur in February. In the region is a tropical climate, so there are only two seasons in Jamaica, one wet and one dry. The largest quantity of rainfall is in the intervals May-June and October-November (sometimes extending to December), while the hurricane season lasts officially from 1 st June to 30th November, the largest chances of forming hurricanes in Jamaica's region being in August and September, yet direct hits by major storms are very rare. In order to convince foreign tourists about the very good weather, most resorts in Jamaica offer nowadays the so called "no hurricane guarantees", and as a result there is an increasing number of travelers who book vacations on this island in the official hurricane season.
When is the best time to visit Jamaica? Because of the low temperature variation, generally the island is great at any time because the beaches are superb year-round and the Caribbean waters offer excellent conditions to swimmer, scuba divers and other water sports enthusiasts. Yet, because many people are not correctly informed about the real danger of hurricanes or about what means winter in a tropical region, in the rainy season and the peak hurricane months the number of vacationers is lower. Therefore, most holiday resorts and hotels in Jamaica offer discount room rates and luring travel deals, and for this reason lucky people could sometimes find 5-star all inclusive vacation packages at prices corresponding usually to 3-star accommodations.
There are several Jamaican resorts located on seaside like Montego Bay, Negril, and Ocho Rios that benefit on a very high appreciation amongst foreign voyagers, and as a consequence most hotels and resorts settled there are generally crowded. In fact, in the peak season (from mid-December to mid-April, when is winter in Caribbean) the beaches are packed with thousands of tourists, the holiday attractions cannot be explored in depth, and generally vacation packages are expensive. The low season in Jamaica is during the Caribbean summer, when occur rainfall and can forming hurricanes. Savvy travelers don't think on when is the best time visiting Jamaica for beach vacations because they know today the weather forecast can predict with high accuracy the evolution of any heavy storm. They also know the rainy season means several brief rain showers in the afternoon. After all, when on the international travel scene are available all inclusive packages to Jamaica on rates with 40-50% off in comparison with the high season, what matter several drops of rain on the hot sandy beaches?
