Warm days, with little cooling after dark

Average daytime highs of 26.7°C make February hot enough for light summer clothing, but the heat is relatively restrained for Grenada. Days reaching 30°C are not typical for this month, so it suits travellers who want warmth without very high daytime temperatures. The bigger consideration is the lack of overnight relief: average lows are 24.7°C, and humidity is 76%. Choose accommodation where you can sleep comfortably in warm conditions, and pack loose, breathable clothes for evenings as well as daytime. Keep more energetic plans away from midday if you find humid heat tiring; a lower thermometer reading does not necessarily mean it will feel cool.

Plan for sunshine, but keep rain flexibility

February brings about 7.3 hours of sunshine within 11.6 hours of daylight, giving you a useful amount of bright weather for time outdoors. About 8 days have measurable rain, so a completely rain-free stay is not something to count on. That is a reason to keep outdoor plans flexible, rather than to rule the month out. Pack a light waterproof and something to protect your belongings if rain catches you out. The monthly figures do not tell you when rain will arrive or how long it will last, so avoid building your plans around an assumed dry morning or afternoon.

Sea temperatures favour a swimming holiday

The sea averages 26.7°C in February, which puts swimming firmly on the agenda rather than making it a bracing extra. Its year-to-year range is 26°C to 27°C, so water temperature is a reassuring part of choosing this month. Combined with warm air, that makes February well suited to travellers who want much of their holiday to revolve around the water. Take sun protection for time in and out of the sea, and keep drinking water handy in the humidity. Warm water does not, however, tell you about waves or local swimming conditions, so check those before getting in.
