Seasonal Considerations

The weather in the Virgin Islands, as in most places in the Caribbean, doesn't vary much from season to season. The difference between average temperatures in the summer and winter is approximately 10 degrees Fahrenheit making the U.S. Virgin Islands ideal for destination wedding couples. High season in the Virgin Islands runs roughly from mid-December to mid-April. Off season begins when North America starts to warm up, and travelers, assuming that temperatures in the Virgin Islands are soaring, head for less tropical local beaches. However, it's actually quite balmy year-round in the Virgin Islands -- thanks to the fabled trade winds -- with temperatures varying little more than 5° between winter and summer. Destination wedding couples looking to save should really consider this time of year as hotel rates are slashed a startling 25% to 50%.
