Bahamas (Exuma) in June

Not the best time

Off-season begins with significant savings but less reliable weather. Good for budget travelers who don't mind afternoon storms and higher humidity.

Weather

June officially kicks off the wet season with higher humidity and regular afternoon thunderstorms. Mornings can still be beautiful, but by mid-afternoon it's hot and muggy. Rain falls in intense but usually brief bursts.

All Months

November through April delivers perfect weather — highs in the low 80s, minimal rain, and trade winds that keep humidity in check. This is peak season, so expect higher prices and more boats at popular spots like the swimming pigs. December and January are the busiest months. The swimming pig beach can see 20+ boats on busy days, which stresses the animals and ruins photos. If you're visiting during peak season, ask your captain about early morning departures — you'll often have places to yourself before 10am. May through October brings heat, humidity, and afternoon thunderstorms. But here's what most people miss — the water is warmest during these months, reaching 84°F in August. Fewer crowds mean better wildlife encounters and lower accommodation prices. Hurricane season runs June through November, with September and October being the highest risk months. Most local boat operators shut down during tropical storm warnings, so build flexibility into your plans.
