Field notes
Outside the hurricane belt — among the most reliable tropical climates anywhere. Temperature is stable year-round (27–29°C). Constant trade winds keep humidity manageable for the latitude. Dry season (January–August) is the postcard window; light rain season (September–December) is rarely disruptive.
