San Andres, Providencia and Santa Catalina: When to go

+ Add a Photo

Climate & Geography

By Richard McColl

All year round the islands are blessed with fine Caribbean weather although San Andres suffers more than Providencia with regards to hurricanes due to favourable currents protecting the smaller island. Hurricane season can inflict heavy rains, winds and overcast skies from late September through until early December.

Accommodation rates also fluctuate through the year depending on holidays and weather patterns.

High season: late December to late January, Easter Week.

Mid-season: mid June to mid August.

Low season: End of January to mid June, except Easter Week, and mid August to mid December.
