Value Season
January 6 - February 11
August 17 - September 1
September 14 - November 17
November 30 - December 21

Also usually Hurricane Season in the Carribean is Sept Through Middle of November just so you know!
Hope this helps!

During Hurricane season! So be prepared. The rates are low for a reason.

:D we just booked for Feb 1 2003 on Disney Magic and we got a great rate. Weather is usually a little cooler is what they tell me?
Like upper 70's to lower 80's,but living is St.louis we will consider that really warm. Feb is always a cold month for us. We always did Mexico in Jan and it was funny cause the locals always thought that it was cool and would not get in the water. We thought it was great. You may want to consider putting your trip
off a couple months or atleast into December. I also checked the
average precip levels in the caribbean for Feb and it is one of the
least months for rain. I would just hate to be worrying about a
hurricaine. What ever you decide hope it works out....

:D

February sounds like a good month. So we could still go swimming? I don't like really hot weather anyway.

:D From the trip reports that I have been reading lately this time of the year sounds like it is just perfect. I also have all those places on my Yahoo site so I can see the weather since we will be
on the cruise ship this time next year. So far it has been in the 80's and I noticed when I look at the Grand Caymans it will say 81
degrees (feels like 85) so I am sure that it will feel really warm to us who live up north. I am sure the sun is more intense. I think that the nights would be cooler,but the days should be great. We were at WDW in Nov-early Dec and it was in the 80's and we swam everyday. It was great.
