What June is like in Turks and Caicos

June is hot, with highs near 88F (31C), and the seas are calm and glassy. Hurricane season opens, but June storms are uncommon. It is a great month for snorkeling and diving, and prices are fair.

This month suits families, divers, and snorkelers. The calm water is ideal for kids. Keep bookings refundable just in case. For drier air and lower humidity, choose April or May. Families will love the shallow water at Grace Bay and the easy shore reefs at Bight Reef, where turtles are common. Glass-bottom boats and Iguana Island trips run on calm seas, and it is a great month to learn to snorkel.

Beat the crowds

  • Target late April through May: winter weather without winter rates or crowds.
  • If you add a Grand Turk day trip, pick a day with no cruise ships in port; on ship days the island's beaches and Cockburn Town fill up.
  • Get to Chalk Sound and the snorkel reefs early, when the water is calmest and the tour boats have not yet arrived.
  • Stay on North or Middle Caicos for a night or two to see a version of the islands that has almost no crowds at any time of year.

Know before you go

  • September and into October: many restaurants and some resorts close for maintenance and vacations. Confirm your hotel's dining options before booking a fall trip.
  • Boat trips and ferries to North Caicos depend on the sea; winter fronts and summer storms can cancel them for a day.
  • Grand Turk's cruise center dominates the island on ship days; on other days its beaches and historic Cockburn Town are very quiet.
