It's Hurricane Season. Time to Plan Your Trip to the Caribbean

Every September, knuckles from Maine to Venezuela whiten with the approach of storm season, that 3-month window when the wide stretch of the Atlantic between Dakar and Antigua threatens to fling spirals of torrential rain and wind at our eastern coasts. In this episode, we give you tips on staying safe and protecting your vacation in hurricane zones, including how to choose a low-risk island and what to do when things go wrong. We'll revisit the classics, and update you on Puerto Rico, St. Barth's, St. Maarten, and other spots that were hit hard during last year's season. And we'll tell you, as we've told you many times before, why it's so important to go—not just for them, but for you. Learn about your ad choices: dovetail.prx.org/ad-choices
