Guadeloupe enjoys warm temperatures all year long thanks to its gorgeous tropical climate. There’s a dry “Lent” season from January to June and a wet “Winter” season from July to December. The year-round heat is tempered by the famous Trade Winds, often providing pleasant sea breezes while you soak up the sun.
The best time to visit Guadeloupe is between December and April, when the weather is hot and dry with average highs between 29°C and 30°C.

Between two tanning sessions, you can practice your swing during your stay in Guadeloupe: the Saint-François golf course is only 30 minutes from Club Med La Caravelle resort.
