Sargassum Zeewier in Mexico and the Caribbean has been invading the beaches in recent years and holiday plans are ruined for many travelers and it will not be better in 2024.
We have compiled a list of Caribbean beaches that have traditionally not been hit by the seasonal flowering of Sargassum to help you with your travel plans.
Current seaweed situation in the Caribbean in 2024
The seaweed season 2024 is so far mild in the Caribbean. Most places that are invaded every year report less sargassum this season. The reason behind it is most likely the lower sea temperatures at this time of the year than normal, but that is currently changing and more arrival of seaweed is expected.
