We cruised Western Carib at end of March this year, and weather was great. 90 degrees F +/- a couple every day. A brief shower in Cozumel, otherwise sunny whole time. Can't guarantee next year, but it worked this year!!

March is starting to get kinda icky and humid. Why not check the weather.com averages for your ports and see what they say? I would prefer early March, because you're still a smidge in the drier season.

 

Also, when's Easter next year? Are you hitting Spring Break at the end of March?

late mar is hot sunny and a little humid, but thats what you want after a long cold northern winter.

The beginning of mar is Hot, sunny and a little humid too.

the most important thing to know is that tropical disturbances are UNKNOWN in march!!! Smmoth sailing......

Easter is March 27, but our school's spring break is March 7-11. We are also looking at early March to sail instead of waiting until the end of May, or through the summer.

We sailed this past March 6 to the Western Caribbean and the weather was perfect. Enjoy!

The Caribbean is tropical. In March, the real rainy season hasn't started yet. Drink plenty of water and wear sun-screen and you should be good to go. The Atlantic may still be a bit cold for swimming, but the Caribbean should be lovely.
