Hi, we plan on snorkeling when we come down in late January and going to Stingray City. How cold will the water be? I cannot find a water temps map anywhere.

 

thank you!

Water temperatures vary from a low of about 78 °F in February to a high of about 87°F in October. Some years it never drops below 80°F.

In January plan on water temperatures of 81°F and your shouldn't be too far off. Keep in mind that such temperatures can seem quite chilly if there is much wind blowing.
