When is the best time of year to go on a Panama Canal cruise?

What is weather there like? Is there a rainy and non rainy season? etc...

Are you planning a canal cruise Alisa???

I think the weather there is pretty much the same as in the Caribbean, Alisa. We have some friends who are going on a holiday cruise for two weeks on RCI. Once Nov. is past, there is no more worry about hurricane season.

BROOKE ---- first of all..... you better change your signature line NOW!

Second, yes I want to do a Canal cruise in 2007. But my parents are leaning towards Baltic... we're going to see what the prices and itinerary and timing is like when 2007 schedule is released and decide from there. So I am trying to get info on both places!

I agree, Alisa...I like him beady eyed and fur covered better...

I would guess that's it EXTRA hot and humid!

Alisa, we were there last November 15 and it was a little sticky. Not bad. The humidty is quite different than our California humidty. Just take along extra underarm stuff and you will be fine.

thanks Hanna for the advice

We went in April and the weather was hot but not to humid. Next year we are going in October which I have heard is the rainy season.
