Climate & Weather

Hot sunny days and warm breezes blowing off the Caribbean are the staples of St. John weather, making it a beautiful place to visit at any time of the year. St. John weather is considered tropical for good reason - an annual average temperature in the high twenties (about 30 degrees celsius) varies little between seasons, keeping winter months hot and sunny though slightly less humid than summer. Many restaurants and shopping malls are air-conditioned to combat the St. John weather, but sticking close to the beaches (with plenty of sunscreen) is also a good idea, as trade winds blowing off the sea tend to make these areas a bit more pleasant and you can always go for a dip to cool off. The St. John USVI weather also backs off a bit inland, where higher altitudes in the national park make for slightly cooler days and nights, especially in the winter season.

St. John weather does not include an extensive rainy season and any showers that do occur are generally short. With all of the sun raining down on St. John, wet showers are usually welcomed as a brief respite from the heat.
