Bermuda dive season calendar
Typical conditions through the year. Bermuda sits in the Gulf Stream, so it stays divable year-round — the real planning question is swell and wind, not temperature.
7-day tide planner
High and low tides for Bermuda (near 32.3°N, 64.8°W) for the next week. Slack water around high and low is the easiest time to dive offshore reefs — aim for the hour either side. Times are local Bermuda time (Atlantic/Bermuda).

Month-by-month conditions
| Month | Water | Visibility | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| January | 19–20 °C | Good between fronts | Winter fronts bring swell and wind; short weather windows, quiet reefs. |
| February | 18–19 °C | Variable | Coldest water of the year. A 5 mm suit and hood make the difference. |
| March | 18–19 °C | Improving | Still cool and breezy, but calmer days start stringing together. |
| April | 20–21 °C | Good | Water warms quickly; boat diving gets friendlier as swell drops. |
| May | 22–24 °C | Very good | One of the best months — settled weather before the summer heat. |
| June | 25–26 °C | Excellent | Long, flat days. Reef fish active; early starts beat the boat traffic. |
| July | 27–28 °C | Excellent | Warmest, calmest stretch. Thin suit or rash guard is enough. |
| August | 28–29 °C | Excellent | Peak warmth, but hurricane season is ramping up — watch the forecast. |
| September | 27–28 °C | Good, storm-dependent | Historic peak of hurricane season. Great diving between systems. |
| October | 25–26 °C | Good | Warm water, fewer visitors, occasional swell from distant storms. |
| November | 23–24 °C | Variable | Storm season winding down; first cool fronts arrive. |
| DecemberThis month | 21–22 °C | Variable | Back to picking your windows between fronts. Suit up properly. |
