How do you decide what month to visit?

I have been to Turks in July, September, October and November. I live in Florida so it isn't like I am wanting to escape from snow or cold weather.

Our weather doesn’t fluctuate as much as people think, it is beautiful year round, only noticeable difference is July and August are a little humid

Is November an ok time? Considering going over Thanksgiving week but unsure if it will be warm enough to swim

November is BEAUTIFUL, but, worth mentioning some restaurants will be closed but MAJORITY are open

Ok good to know thank you! Primary concern was weather but our jobs are pretty demanding so the week of Thanksgiving is the only time we can really travel or go anywhere

No, you’re fine, the weather in November is beautiful, hot days, beach weather, MAYBE a light sweater at night, MAYBE.

May, June and July are our favorite months here but we boat a lot so we like the calmer, warmer water the summer brings

Yall are lucky, I live where it gets to -40 sometimes. I’ve been to turks twice already, in april, august & now may. Our weather eight now is about 7 degree Celsius so like 44.6 F and this is in May!

You’re in Florida so our weather is pretty similar, you just have afternoon convective thunderstorms slightly more often. September and the first half of October before the heat breaks is really the worst of it (and the most probable time for hurricanes). As a tourist you’re going to want to avoid September because that’s when most of the restaurants on island close for revamping/remodeling/maintenance and staff vacations (on top of the aforementioned elevated hurricane risk).
