The weather of this province of Cuba
The average daytime temperatures generally vary between 22 and 30 degrees Celsius. There are two seasons, dry season from November to April and wet season (or rainy season) from May to October.
The average rainfall still remains fairly low during the dry season (the most popular for North Americans). During summer, do not forget to bring a good insect repellent.
For those who do not support heat, note that summer months are very hot (30C +) and humid. During the dry season (winter), it only rains very rarely, but evenings can be cool enough to bring long pants and sleeves.
Cayo Ensenachos has not been much affected by strong hurricane like it was the case in many other tourist attractions of Cuba. In 2008, a hurricane caused strong waves that have damaged a section of the dam, but thankfully everything is now repaired and fully functional.

NOTE: You must not take the weather forecast too seriously as there are often warnings of rain. This is normal for the wet season, because there are actually episodes of rain, but it is temporary and does not last all day. The widget on left is based in Cayo Guillermo. This island is located East of Cayo Ensenachos, in the same region.
