December to April (Dry Season/High Season):
- This period is considered the best time to visit Saint Kitts and Nevis. The weather is dry, sunny, and comfortable, with temperatures ranging from the mid-70s to the mid-80s Fahrenheit (24-30°C). It's ideal for beach vacations, water sports, and exploring historical sites. You'll experience less rainfall, clear skies, and excellent conditions for outdoor activities.

While the rainfall can be substantial, it usually doesn't last all day. This is the low season, offering lower prices on accommodations and fewer tourists. It's a great time for budget-conscious travelers and those seeking a quieter experience. The countryside is lush and green during these months.
June to November (Hurricane Season):
