   What is the average temperature in The Islands Of The Bahamas? Should I avoid visiting The Islands Of The Bahamas during the hurricane season?  
   http://www.bahamatravelnet.com/maps/geography.html
   
   Extractions: For the latest information on weather in The Islands Of The Bahamas please consult the Bahamas Department of Meteorology's website at http://flamingo.bahamas.net.bs/weather. The Islands Of The Bahamas have a temperate climate ranging from 80-90 degrees Fahrenheit with high humidity in the summer months to 70-80 degrees in the winter. Nighttime temperatures are generally cooler by 5-7 degrees. In the more northerly islands, winter temperatures are approximately 5 degrees lower than the southern islands. Sea surface temperatures vary between 74 degrees in February and 84 degrees in August. When is the rainy season? The Islands Of The Bahamas experience rain year-round; however, the months of May through October constitute the rainy season. The northern islands normally receive twice as much rain as the southern islands with heavy squalls or thundershowers which clear quickly. Should I avoid visiting The Islands Of The Bahamas during the hurricane season? The months of June to November constitute the hurricane season. The weather does influence travel decisions and often, inaccurate reporting of information on hurricanes results in needless cancellations by U.S. travellers. Many Bahamas hoteliers have instituted a Hurricane Hotel Policy for vacationers which states that visitors who cancel a Bahamas vacation during a hurricane will receive an immediate refund with no penalties. If caught on-island during a hurricane, they would be extended the lowest possible rate and all possible courtesies.

    Extractions: The Bahamas derives its name from the Spanish words meaning shallow seas. The waters surrounding The Bahamas are virtually pollution free and are the clearest and most collorful in the world and the islands of The Bahamas boast the spectacular beaches ranging form coral pink to ivory white. Despite its name and large areas of shallow sand beds and reefs, The Bahamas also has some of the deepest waters in the world in an area called "The Tongue of the Ocean" which is located just east of Andros island. These waters are over one mile deep and are utilised for oceanographic research by scientists of the Atlantic Undersea Testing and Evaluation Centre, a joint US/UK research base. The Great Barrier Reef, the third largest in the world, flanks the Tongue of the Ocean. The Gulf Stream, commonly referred to as the "Great Ocean River", borders The Bahamas on the west.
