    Runaway Bay weather in October is lovely and warm and even though it’s technically autumn, you’ll feel as though you’ve visited in the peak of the summer.

    Jamaica witnesses a continuous stream of sunshine and warmth due to its prime location under the Caribbean sun. Runaway Bay benefits from gentle breezes coming in from the sea, which will cool you down in the heat while providing perfect conditions for wind surfing and water skiing. October falls within hurricane season, which means it’s more prone to storms and heavy downpours. On the bright side, rain showers are usually brief and it won’t be long before you’re back out relaxing on the sandy beach.
