Abacos Cruising Conditions

General conditions
The trade winds that blow almost continually throughout The Bahamas give the islands a warm, agreeable climate, which varies little year round. The most refreshing time is from December through February when the temperature averages 70–75°F (21–24°C). 
The rest of the year is a bit warmer with temperatures between 80–85°F (27–29°C).
The weather at this base is comparable to Miami, Florida; mostly sunny with some clouds. We advise that you dress for sun and sand and bring a light jacket for the evenings when it's cooler.

Tides
The tidal range in The Bahamas is up to 3.5 feet. 
A copy of the tidal charts is provided in the charterer's folder at the base. 
Due to the shallow nature of these waters it is extremely important that close attention is paid to the tide while underway as well as entering and exiting harbours.
