Highlights

When to Visit

Dec-Apr

Trade-wind dry season with Cayman Cookout in mid-January, Pirates Week in early November aside, and the Christmas through Easter window at peak resort demand.

May-Jul

Sea calmest with diving visibility past 30m at Bloody Bay Wall, rates dropping after Easter, and Batabano Carnival in early May fills George Town with parades.

Aug-Oct

Hurricane season peaks September with elevated risk, but the dive operators stay open between systems and turtle nesting on Cayman beaches at peak.

Nov

Pirates Week first weekend fills George Town with mock invasion and parades, hurricane risk fading, and the December high-season buildup beginning.
