When to go

Martinique has a tropical climate with a dry season – and consequently high in terms of tourism – from December to May. During this period, average temperatures remain around 25ºC to 30ºC during the day. The rainy season extends from June almost to the end of November but, as a rule, it brings heavy rain towards the end of the day. September and August are the wettest months and also those when the island is most likely to be hit by hurricanes that form over the Atlantic Ocean, particularly over the Caribbean Sea.
