kadiebug12 Posted July 24, 2006 #1 Share Posted July 24, 2006 What is the best time of year to visit Tahiti and the surrounding islands? We plan on doing a lot of snorkeling so would be interested in going when the water is warm and clear. :) Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare MVPinBoynton Posted July 24, 2006 #2 Share Posted July 24, 2006 We went at the end of February through the first part of March. We had realtively good weather for the summer months. There were some tropical showers, but for them most part it was quite warm and ideal for snorkeling. I would think that later in March or April would be better weather; but the TP doesn't do the Marquesas itinerary after the end of February.

Aussie Gal Posted July 25, 2006 #3 Share Posted July 25, 2006 We were there in March, 2004 and it was supposed to be the rainy season but didn't really see any rain. The water is clear as clear and warm. The best times to visit according to the books etc. is from May to October when it is not so humid and the rain has disappeared but I think anytime is perfect in "Paradise".

Wendy The Wanderer Posted July 25, 2006 #4 Share Posted July 25, 2006 May and early June is very nice, I've done that twice. April is still humid and hot, but the water is very pleasant. In fact, the weather varies very little over the year, and the water I believe is always warm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kadiebug12 Posted July 25, 2006 Author #5 Share Posted July 25, 2006 Thanks for the guidance everyone. We found great deals for this coming January so we've put a request in for a cabin. As long as the price hasn't changed since yesterday we're going to book! I know it's going to be warm and humid, but we live in Miami so we're used to it. :) I love the warm water (the warmer the better) for snorkeling so we're really looking forward to it! Thanks again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southwestgal Posted July 26, 2006 #6 Share Posted July 26, 2006 We went in January 2006. The weather was fabulous with just a couple of quick thunderstorms that passed very quickly (less than 30 minutes each). I didn't think the heat or humidity were bad at all. I wouldn't hesitate to return in January. Have a great trip! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
