THE
WEATHER: The Virgin Islands have some of the nicest
weather in the world. Temperatures range from the low 80's
in January and February, to the low 90's in July and August.
The ever-present tradewinds moderate the temperature and humidity
is relatively low. "Winter" air temperature can get a bit cool,
so think about a light sweater or jacket for when you exit
the water. This is the time of year when we can't keep our
long sleeve Coki Beach tee-shirts in stock!
From August to October, we are subject to an occasional tropical storm or hurricane.
The rest of the year is dominated by the easterly trade winds and weather out
of Africa. |
From November to April our weather is periodically briefly affected by cold fronts passing through with rough seas and rain. (If you like to surf, we have some excellent surf spots).
THE
WATER: The
water is turquoise blue and is always pleasant, ranging from 78 °F
in the winter to 86 °F in the summer.
WETSUITS: Even
in the winter, most people do not use wetsuits. We recommend a 2-3
mm wetsuit but it really depends on personal comfort. We do rent
3 mm shorties. In the summer, we recommend only a tee-shirt, a lycra
skin or a 2 mm shortie. Remember that even though the weather is
generally wonderful here, conditions can change for short periods.
