Just finished reading an entire guidebook on the Caribbean and whenever it mentions that a restaurant serves lobster, they put in parenthesis when in season yet nowhere does it say when that is.
When is lobster season exactly? Does it vary by island? Are there yearly patterns?
Although not technically part of the Caribbean islands, I would like to include Turks and Caicos plus The Bahamas, since those are the islands I am likely to see next .

The season does differ by island, although a closed period from April/May to July/August is more common than any other.
Some places have no closed season, some have a closed season which is in a different time of the year and some have a much longer closed season.
You can find the details on this site, (from the comment by @Sebastian.)

The saying only in months with "R" in the name seems to be somewhat accurate!
