Climate & Weather Guide in Martinique
Climate zones, seasonal temperatures, rainfall patterns, and best travel times
Martinique is a small Caribbean island with a warm, humid tropical climate and very little seasonal temperature variation. Köppen data for the island is mainly tropical savanna (Aw), while wetter upland and windward areas can behave more like tropical monsoon or rainforest zones. Mean annual temperatures are typically around 25-26 C, with the dry season from roughly January to April offering the most comfortable conditions for many residents. Rainfall varies strongly by location, from moderately wet coastal areas to much wetter eastern and mountainous zones. Humidity is high year-round, so the climate feels lush, warm, and sometimes muggy for expats.
