Caribbean ↗From August to October keep a free last day before your flight home and check the national hurricane centre daily; airports close when a named storm approaches.
Caribbean ↗Wearing camouflage clothing is illegal for civilians in several islands, including Barbados, Antigua, Saint Lucia, Saint Vincent, Grenada, Dominica, Trinidad and Tobago and Jamaica; leave it at home, children's clothes included.

Cayman Islands ↗Marine parks are enforced: do not take coral, shells or fish, and follow the rules at Stingray City.

Seven Mile Beach and George Town ↗June to November is hurricane season with the peak in August to October: buy flexible fares and cover storm cancellations.
