February is a great month to cruise to the Bahamas and Caribbean from Florida, with lots of hot, sunny days and little humidity or precipitation. The Caribbean islands enjoy a fantastic tropical climate all year due to their location in the warm, clear waters of the Caribbean Sea near the equator; thus, beautiful weather and moderate temperatures may be expected across the islands in February. Northern islands are frequently cooler than southern ones.
What to expect from the weather on the February cruise?
In February, temperatures in the Southern Caribbean can reach 84 degrees Fahrenheit in the middle of the day, while the Bahamas averages 70 degrees. In February, the Caribbean Sea temperature is a pleasant 79 degrees Fahrenheit, making it ideal for all kinds of water sports like snorkeling and scuba diving. If it rains, it will be a brief, heavy afternoon shower followed by a return to the sun. February is peak season in the Caribbean, with warm weather, so prepare ahead of time for your Florida cruise.
