Florida golf weather — frequently asked
When is the best time to play golf in Florida?
March, February, January, December score highest in Stymie's 12-month planning model near Naples. The model combines NASA POWER typical temperature, estimated dew point, precipitation, and wind; conditions vary across Florida, so use the city forecast before booking.
What dew point is comfortable for golf in Florida?
Dew points under 60°F are generally comfortable for golf. Below 50°F feels dry and crisp. Above 70°F, wet grips, heat stress, and dehydration matter more, although humid air itself is slightly less dense and does not make the ball fly shorter.
