High season and low season:Like a large part of the Caribbean, the Turks and Caicos Islands have become a possible destination throughout the year. The season runs from mid-November to mid-April, which is generally the driest period of the year in the Caribbean. So the prices of hotels are higher during this period and you will have to make your reservations well in advance. The holidays of February or Easter win the palm for the family holidays.

The off-season in the Turks and Caicos Islands, from mid-April to mid-November is perfectly nice. Temperatures are somewhat higher, but southeast winds reduce the sensation of heat, as well as more frequent brief showers. Hotel prices are also reduced by 20% to 50% compared to winter rates. Airline tickets are generally cheaper and the Plane / Hotel packages seem reasonable even for stays in five star deluxe accommodations.

Note: Some hotels use the off-season for renovation or construction, which can be embarrassing if you are looking for peace and quiet.

When to go? The hottest month for the beach, lazing around and swimming is September. Warning, September is a month with cyclonic risks, heavy showers may occur, otherwise other periods are possible. The coolest month is January, if you can not stand the heat too much. The driest month of the year is March, if you do not like the rain at all.
