Climate Characteristics of San Andrés
General Overview
San Andrés is a tropical coral island located in the heart of the Caribbean Sea. The island's climate is a tropical savanna climate, characterized by warm and very stable temperatures throughout the year. Unlike the mainland, the climate here is directly influenced by ocean currents and trade winds, which keep the air relatively fresh even when temperatures are high.
Temperatures and Daily Variations
Daytime temperatures consistently average between 29°C and 31°C (84-88°F), while nighttime lows drop to 25°C-26°C (77-79°F). There is almost no difference between seasons in terms of heat; it feels like eternal summer. Humidity is high, but the constant sea breeze makes being outdoors very pleasant, especially near the shore.
Rainy Seasons (September-November)
This is the wettest period on the island. Rains are usually intense but short bursts, after which the skies clear quickly. It is important to note that these months (especially October) are at the height of the Caribbean hurricane season; although San Andrés is outside the main path, strong tropical storms can occur, affecting sea conditions and flights.
Dry Seasons (January-April)
This is the ideal time to visit. The skies are blue, water visibility is perfect for diving and snorkeling, and rainfall is minimal. During this period, the sea is calmer, and the famous colors of the water are most prominent under direct sunlight.
