FAQ: The Buccaneer Beach & Golf Resort Weather by Month
What month has the best weather at The Buccaneer Beach & Golf Resort?
Many travelers prefer the drier, more comfortable stretch from December through April, when daytime highs are often around 80–84°F with lower humidity and steady trade winds—making it easier to plan beach days, golf rounds, snorkeling, and historic estate tours.
What months feel the warmest and most humid on St. Croix?

Does it rain every day in late summer or early fall?
Not usually, but you can see more frequent showers and occasional stormy periods, especially in August, September, and October.
