As you know, Cuba is an archipelago in the Caribbean Sea, also washed by the waters of the Gulf of Mexico and the Atlantic Ocean .The largest island has the same name as the whole state..Geographers see in its outlines a lizard whose tail rests directly in the Gulf of Mexico .The number of nearby coral reefs and small islands rises far beyond a thousand .Such a geographical location, the presence of warm waters of the Gulf Stream and trade-wind circulation determines the climate of Cuba, which, of course, depends on the region, but on the whole has pronounced features for the whole territory of the islands..

Conditionally it is possible to distinguish two climatic seasons .The dry period lasts from November to April, and is especially noticeable in the south of the country, for example, in the basin of the longest river Cauto on the island of Cuba..Rainy falls on the Russian summer .From May to October, an annual rainfall is spilled on the ground, which sometimes turns into prolonged downpours accompanied by strong winds .Such typhoons cause great harm to the population and usually occur in the autumn, in September or October .Based on this temperature regime, the best time to relax is from December to April, when the rains have already stopped, and the heat is fairly easy to tolerate .

The average temperature in January, in the high season, is around 21-22 ° C, while the water temperature is about 22-24 ° C. In summer, in August, the average temperature is about 28 ° C on land and 28-30 ° C in water. High humidity - an integral part of the tropical climate - is in Cuba all year round. Transfer it in the presence of heat is not easy, but on the coast it's not so noticeable, thanks to the sea winds. Evening here can even be cool.
