Cloudy Caribbean islands/beaches?

PP here. BTW, even when cloudy, sun's rays can burn you.

The north coast of Kauai or east coast of Maui might suit you. It rains alot.

Maybe check Dominica, the nature island.

When we were in Grand Cayman in January it was consistently cloudy in the morning.

Hi Anonomous, I'm looking for the same thing. The best I found was Bocas del Toro, Panama on the caribbean side. Great snorkeling, surfing etc. It's a rainforest area so you get lots of cloud. The google earth photo is telling. It's pretty well all cloud. One drawback is it's remote. You fly into Panama City or San Jose C.R. then take a local flight to Bocas. Check it out.

We went to Jamaica in January, and while warm it was pretty cloudy most days. I suggest going in the winter seasons for less intense sun.

I was also going to say north Kauai, Hawaii. My brother says the south part of the island is sunny and the north part near Princeville, where you get the terrific views of the rugged peaks at Hanalei, it rains every day and there are rainbows. Look at today's forecast! http://www.wunderground.com/us/hi/princeville

I have heard Dominica gets a lot of clouds...the tiny volcano island of Saba where we stayed for a couple of nights as part of a two-island trip to St. Barts has clouds around the top of Mt. Scenery all the time and lots of lush growth, and no beaches but beautiful hiking and views. Much of the diving there was too deep for me to really be enjoyable, the famous sea mounts begin at 90 feet, but Diamond Rock and the shallow dive sites were OK.
St. Lucia has a lot of shade (lush growth) and had a lot of grey clouds on the windward side, but the waves were rough and it is not the touristy area. Maybe one of the small inns near the Pitons would suit. Anse Chastenet had the best shore snorkeling.
