Dry season December–May with steady trade winds; wetter and more humid June–November. Barbados sits east of the main island arc, so direct hurricane hits are rarer than further north, but Beryl (2024) damaged boats and fishing fleets.
Crop Over season season
Calypso and soca events building to the Grand Kadooment parade on the first Monday in August.
Watch: Rain and humidity rising; book Kadooment-period accommodation well ahead.

Officially the whole June–November window; most days are unaffected, but storm risk is real.
Watch: Check forecasts close to your trip dates and understand your travel insurance's storm cover.
