Cuba

What’s the weather like in Cuba in March?

Lying in the northern Caribbean, Cuba has a tropical climate with warm weather all year round. The Tropic of Cancer runs through the north, and you can expect high temperatures and lots of sun if you're going in March. The month falls in Cuba’s dry season which runs from November to April. It’s the driest of the year, so it’s a fantastic time for you to visit. North easterly winds will help to keep you cool, while the waters of the Caribbean Current are lovely and warm. You'll get the least amount of rain in the south because of the direction of winds.
