Good point on not planning around hurricane season. Does hurricane season mean the water is warmer?
My daughter will be starting college that Fall and that didn't even occur to me. Hmm.......looks like we're back to early August or even earlier. I want the least expensive. I might be better off trying for Spring Break though I'm guessing SB is also very $$$.
The schools in San Diego start back August 21st...at least where we live.
No-it is due to basically NO school holidays other than President's Day in Feb. Oct is still considered hurricane season(June-Oct I believe), but Feb is not. Kind of a "After the holidays" lull in travel.
We are in San Diego and our school district (SDUSD) always starts back up the day after Labor Day, so not until September
Here in NYC the kids go back to school Sept 9th this year. I ALWAYS vacation end of August. I don't mind the heat and it's a nice thing to do before the whirlwind of school activities, homework, etc starts all over again.
Many schools are back in session by the 3rd week in August.

That's the way school was when I was a kid. I guess some districts have shifted the start earlier so that kids take finals before Christmas break, instead of the third week of January like we did when I was a kid.

Is that due to weather? Is there a bad weather season for the Caribbean?
We cruise on the Fantasy during the last week in August. The price was so much lower, weather was Fantastic
And our school, in SoCal, begin after Labor Day. So it's a great time to cruise.
Who has that kind of money? Even if two families shared it would be a fortune. I'm not doing something right in this life.

I agree. That's when I like to vacation too. Last year we got a beautiful cabin on Bear Lake for $25 a night. The same cabin runs $350 a night just a week earlier.
But if your oldest daughter is starting college, your days of late August vacations may be older. Many Universities start in August now too. Most Florida schools are just finishing up now, and will start again in early August.
