Lovelysmile415 0 Posted November 10, 2015 Report Share Posted November 10, 2015 From experience, what is the typical weather like in the caribbean in January? (Bahamas and St. Thomas specifically) Was the water warm enough to swim in? I have tried researching online but have found conflicting answers? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DocLC 2,014 Posted November 10, 2015 Report Share Posted November 10, 2015 I have sailed the Caribbean consistently in January since 2009. I found the water in the Bahamas and St. Thomas to be tolerable, but found the water warmer in St. Maartin. I'm a California boy, though by way of Hawaii, so I have a very limited temperature range.

WAAAYTOOO 11,252 Posted November 10, 2015 Report Share Posted November 10, 2015 I agree with Doc. That is really not far enough south to keep the water warm enough for swimming that time of year. The air is nice and warm but the water really isn't IMO. Lovelysmile415 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Matt 10,719 Posted November 10, 2015 Report Share Posted November 10, 2015 St Thomas will be warm enough to swim, but Bahamas could be hit or miss, depending on the winter they experience down there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
