What is the weather like in the Eastern Caribbean in January?

Answer 1

Eastern Caribbean weather in January maintains an average high temperature in the low 80s Fahrenheit in most locations, according to statistics from the World Meteorological Organization.

Average lows are in the low 70s, but those lows occur mainly at night. Trade winds are stronger than usual and make the air feel cooler as a result.

Although the Bahamas aren't technically part of the Caribbean, they often are included in most eastern Caribbean cruises. Their northern location makes them cooler than the rest of the region in January with highs averaging in the high 70s and lows in the low 60s.

Rainfall is much lower in the eastern Caribbean than the western destinations. Antigua, Barbados, San Juan and St. Lucia average about two inches of rain during the month, while St. Maarten averages three inches.

Answer 2

Caribbean weather in January is generally in the low to mid 80s Fahrenheit during the day for most destinations.

The exception is the Bahamas. Although the Bahama islands are not technically part of the Caribbean, they are often included in eastern Caribbean cruises. They also have a lot in common with the other islands.

The average high temperature for the Bahamas is about 78 degrees in January. The average low temperature is 63 degrees. Swimming and sunbathing will be uncomfortable most days as a result.

The rest of the Caribbean has nighttime lows ranging from the high 60s to low 70s.

Be aware that trade winds can be stronger during this time of year, which makes swimming and sunbathing uncomfortable in some destinations during the later part of the day.

Rainfall historically is light for the region except for Costa Rica, which averages about 12 inches of total rain, mainly inland.
