The drier season across the Caribbean generally runs December-April, while the wetter, more humid months fall between June and November. Caribbean cooking draws on fresh seafood, tropical fruit, rice dishes and island-spiced flavours, so chicharrón sits within a wider tradition of seasoned, hearty food. Reaching the Caribbean islands is possible through international flights as well as ferries and flights that link one island to another. Travellers will hear English and French used widely throughout the Caribbean islands, which makes getting around easier for many.
