As a luxury travel provider for over 15 years, I want to share my tips and ideas for your Hawaii and Caribbean land vacations. I also work now for a great internet cruise travel agency, so I will share those thoughts as well. As you can see by the empty chairs, there are sunny islands waiting for you!

Best Time of the Year to go the Caribbean

What's the best time of the year to go to the Caribbean?

The Caribbean has become a year round vacation destination. The peak travel season is December to March. This time frame has the highest prices and coincides with the worst weather back here in the mainland US. The official Caribbean hurricane season is June 1 to November 30. Many resorts offer hurricane rebate guarantees and many tour operators require travel insurance purchase during this time. The travel insurance will insure a refund in the rare event of a hurricane hitting your destination during that time. Your travel agent will have the most up-to-date travel-protection ideas for your vacation. Many travelers don't realize how massive the Caribbean region is, and it is highly unlikely that a single hurricane will devastatingly impact a large area of the Caribbean. If a hurricane is headed to your vacation island, the airlines will generally suspend additional travel to the area and evacuate as many vacationers as possible before the hurricane arrives. If you're going to be honeymooning during hurricane season, and can't take the chance of being visited by a hurricane on your vacation, there are some wonderful islands like Aruba, Bonaire and Curacao which lie beneath the traditional hurricane belt, and are rarely, if ever, touched by hurricanes. Best rates for travel generally occur during the low season, (June to November), but some properties close some of their facilities during that season. Working with an agent who specializes in the Caribbean will help you pick accommodations that will provide the best experience for your holiday. Legend has it that 'once you visit the Caribbean, you will return again and again.'

As you know by now, my goal is to always give best price with best service. Please email your Caribbean travel inquiry to david.seeberger@americasvacationcenter.com
