There is an excellent surface temperature map at www.wunderground.com - go to "Features" on the left side of the screen and click on "Tropical Storms."

It's interesting to watch the patterns change during the course of the winter.

The Southern islands: Aruba and the Grenadines have very warm waters. In fact, on one of the Grenadines this summer, the water was actually hot!

Here's a link to a map that gives the actual water temperatures in degrees C.
From this map, you can also select other areas to check actual water temps.

The ones that have a bar in the pool usually have the warmest water with a yellowish tint.
