Temperatures on both islands are tropical and moderate year-round. The average air temperature on the islands is between 78 to 88 degrees Fahrenheit throughout the year. The extreme high temperature is approximately 95 degrees Fahrenheit, and the extreme low can dip to 65 degrees Fahrenheit.
Ninety five degrees may seem hot to most, but the islands experience low humidity and are cooled by northeast trade winds, which make the high temperatures very bearable. Higher altitudes, especially in winter, see cooler weather.
