The “hurricane” season starts on June 1st and finishes on December 1st each year. During this period, tropical depressions crossing the Atlantic between the equator and the Cancer tropic does not allow safe sailing in the area of the Caribbeans. The season is therefore from December to March. The weather is mostly ideal for sailing, warm and nice breeze.
We will offer you several options of unforgettable cruises in the Caribbeans:
▪️North cruise – 7 – 10 – 14 days
▪️South cruise – 7 – 10 – 14 days
At the end of her Caribbean sailing season, in the spring of 2026, Avel Vaez will sail from West to East across the Atlantic.
