Question
Is August a bad time to visit Bermuda on a cruise?

Answer
Hello Alexa,

Weather questions are always tough because no one has a crystal ball - including me.  Here's the deal:  the official hurricane season runs from June through November.  There's your answer.  I suspect that responsible cruise lines keep this in mind while planning, promoting and booking their cruises. My visits to Bermuda during the months of July, August and September have been wonderful with no hurricane-related incidents. (You should know, though, that I don't cruise.)  My advice is to pack your bags and have a nice time. Let the cruise line worry about the weather.  Bon Voyage!  Nan
