Let’s be honest for a moment. Is there ever really a bad time to take a vacation to an island in the middle of the Caribbean? There isn’t. That’s why we have a list of the best Caribbean Islands to visit in September. 

As fall is (slowly) kicking into gear throughout much of the U.S., it still feels like mid-July in places like Grand Cayman and Barbados. So, if you want to hold on to summer a little longer, then you know what you have to do. 

Pack your bags, grab your sunglasses, and don’t forget your reef-friendly sunscreen — it is time for some relaxation amongst the bright blue waters of the Caribbean. 

Best Caribbean Islands to Visit This Fall

Believe it or not, there are over 700 islands, reefs, and cays found within the Caribbean waters, though only about 26 of them are suitable for visitors looking for a getaway. A visit to nearly any island is enjoyable, but here are the best of the best —- the best Caribbean Islands to visit in September. 

Barbados

Barbados is an exciting spot which means it sees a high influx of tourists throughout the year. However, September is the least busy time — giving you the perfect opportunity to enjoy what it has to offer. 

Things to do here: 

  • Snorkeling (especially around the coral reefs and shipwrecks)
  • Hiking on island trails
  • Indulge in delicious island cuisine
  • Relax in the sand
  • Watch the sunrise over the Atlantic
  • Learn about the history and culture
  • Visit all the local shops

Curaçao

Curaçao is an island that is part of the Netherlands — and it is stunning. Brightly colored architecture with many different style influences draws you in and makes you want to explore every inch of the island. It is even a protected UNESCO World Heritage Site. This island is peaceful and refreshing.

Things to do here: 

  • Shop for Dutch specialties 
  • Go snorkeling over the coral reef
  • Take a scuba class
  • Meditate on the shoreline of white sand
  • Swim in the tranquil waters

Grenada

Granada is the true definition of a tropical paradise. This island is known for its favorable cuisine as much as its breathtaking beaches. And did we mention that the waterfalls are like no other? 

Things to do here:

  • Spend time at Seven Sisters Waterfalls
  • Sit by the beach and soak in the warm sunshine
  • Go scuba diving or snorkeling
  • Take a boat ride or go kayaking or paddleboarding
  • Explore the many tropical conservation projects

St. Thomas

St. Thomas is the capital of the U.S. Virgin Islands. Here and around the island there is so much to do and see. Of course, the culinary scene is hot here – and the frozen tropical beverages are cold and delicious. Surrounded by turquoise waters, you are sure to enjoy your stay.  

Things to do here: 

  • Snorkeling (don’t miss seeing the tropical fish that live among the coral reefs)
  • Hiking
  • Relax on the soft sand – in the sun or under the shade of the mangroves
  • Take a boat ride
  • Go paddleboarding

Getting To Your Caribbean Island

Do you know the best way to get to a Caribbean Island? Via a private jet charter. 

While some of these islands are built to handle large commercial aircraft, some have kept the vibe (and the local traffic) rather calm with smaller airports. This means that the island is still very easily accessible — you are just going to need to find a new way to get there. 

Private jets are perfectly accommodated with the island runways so you can feel confident about your entire trip, from the time you leave home until the time you return. 

Besides, would you really want to deal with the hassles of commercial air travel even if the island you choose has the capacity to handle them? Between the long check-in process, TSA security lines, customs lines, and the crowded aircraft itself — going home this way after a nice island stay is going to bring a surge of stress right back into your life.

Why Is September a Great Time to Visit the Caribbean?

It is no secret that September is the peak of hurricane season in the Atlantic. Many travelers question whether or not they should even consider a trip to the Caribbean this month. But, before you throw your travel plans in the garbage, know this — September is the best time to visit the Caribbean. Here’s why. 

With today’s meteorology technology, we know about storms well in advance of their arrival. Unlike most weather, hurricanes don’t just appear out of the blue. Rather, they develop over time. Besides, the Atlantic Ocean is vast, giving storms all sorts of directions to go. The likelihood of a storm heading for your tiny island at the exact time you are there is very slim. 

Should something arise in the waters that looks like it may be a threat to your island? You will just fly home. It’s that simple. The low chances of a hurricane combined with your peaceful time on the island make September a great time to visit. Go enjoy yourself.
