Having
a tropical maritime climate with few incursions of polar air
during the winter, The Bahamas generally experience neither frost,
snow, sleet, hail, nor extremes of temperature. Temperatures
rarely drop below 16ºC or rise above 32ºC
thanks to the Gulf Stream’s clear warm waters and balmy
southeastern trade winds. There are occasional rainfalls during
the summer but brief.
