    Hi Billy,

    The summer can be hot, if the wind dies down. The water is always refreshing
    though if you are diving.

    I don't have a temperature chart, but do have some opinions and the rainfall
    chart. We recently ran a poll (unscientific) on the best time to visit and
    here are
    the results:

    MONTH VOTES PERCENTAGE OF TOTAL

    January 9 10.84%
    February 11 13.25%
    March 12 14.46%
    April 13 15.66%
    May 4 4.82%
    June 10 12.05%
    July 3 3.61%
    August 4 4.82%
    September 5 6.02%
    October 5 6.02%
    November 4 4.82%
    December 3 3.61%

    Someone gave me a Roatan rainfall chart for 7 years. I can't vouch for its
    accuracy, but here is a summary:

    MONTH AVERAGE INCHES RAIN AVERAGE RAINY DAYS
    Jan 12.18 13
    Feb 3.52 8
    Mar 2.66 4
    Apr .96 3

    Sep 4.99 7
    Oct 14.97 14
    Nov 19.89 18
    Dec 14.26 16

    Yearly average rainfall in inches 87
    Yearly average days of rain 112 (sometimes rain only lasts a couple of
    hours)
