Generally, Antigua and Barbuda have two seasons: rainy and dry season. However, even though there is a rainy season, these islands tend to be the most sunny of all the Caribbean islands and even in the rain, the weather does not get very chilly. Between February and May, it tends to rain profoundly in Antigua and Barbuda. During this rainy season, the temperature on the island averages around 85 degrees and the humidity which is mild most of the year on this island, lessens even more. Around August and October, the rainy season reaches its height and it is less advised to visit around this time, which is also peak hurricane season.

Any other time of year, the weather in Antigua and Barbuda is exactly what has made the Caribbean islands famous- sunny with a tropical breeze that blows through ones hair. Over the entire year, these islands do not have much rain; the average amount of rainfall received in Antigua throughout the year is about 45 inches, which is less than most other Caribbean islands.  The rest of the year, the days are sunny and warm, perfect tropical weather to host the myriad of marine sports that are popular on these islands. In addition, there is the luxury of almost constant trade winds from the North East on these islands, which make sailing and windsurfing ideal. In fact, the only time those winds decrease is a little bit around September. Overall, the temperature throughout the year is in between 75 and 85 degrees.
