Climate (Tropical)
With promises of sunshine-filled days and cloudless blue skies, the weather in Bermuda seduces travellers whatever the time of year. While temperatures are kept warm yet pleasantly mild by the Gulf Stream, this humid island has a very peculiar climate that is different to all other Caribbean islands. There is no distinct rainy season and in winter temperatures are noticeably cooler. Most prefer to visit during summer and autumn when temperatures are at their highest and waters at their warmest.
