Looking to sail on the Century in July. What are summers like in the Caribbean? Will it be unbearably oppressive? Any comments appreciated.

It is great in the summer. Yes, it gets hot. If the heat bothers you go to one of the windier islands like Aruba.

We were in the Caribbean in June one year and we didn't think the heat / humidity was bad. We are from Arizona so heat doesn't bother us as much as the humidity. We had no problems with either one.We are going to again this June, I hope it is as wonderful as our last visit. Have a wonderful cruise..... :) Stephanie

Belize in mid-June is the only port I have ever felt was unusually hot. Most everyone in our group felt the same way, and we all live(d) in Florida.

Cruised on the DESTINY last June (22-30) - weather was great. Never needed more than a tank top (except the AC in the ship was super cold at times!) Not too hot, it was just right. Average 85-90. We were at USVI, MARTINIQUE, BARBADOS & ARUBA.

We were in Panama April 11th and the temperature was already 98 degrees. It was miserable with the high humidity. That is one reason the cruise lines do NOT book cruises during the hot summer months for Panama.

The balance of the Caribbean is VERY tolerable during the summer months--Hot-- Just as southern Florida, southern Texas is HOT during the summer. Many if not most of the vehicles are air-conditioned, all business are air-conditioned, and the water temperature is PERFECT for water sports.... Most cruisers complain about how COLD the ship is and to be sure and take a light jacket..

Most cruisers would LOVE to live in the Caribbean year around, as there is not that much of a temperature swing between the winter or summer months.

Have FUN in the beautiful Caribbean with the other 2 million plus tourist ~~!!~~ :lol
