The Andaman and Nicobar Islands, located in the Bay of Bengal, offer a stunning blend of natural beauty, diverse marine life, and rich cultural heritage. Determining the best time to visit depends on your preferences and what activities you want to engage in. However, generally speaking, the best time to visit the Andaman and Nicobar Islands is during the winter months, from November to April, when the weather is pleasant and conducive to outdoor activities.

    Travel Month Min/Max Temperature Season
April to June 24°c - 37°c  Summer
July to September 22°c - 35°c Monsoon
October to March 20°c - 30°c Winter

 

Here's a breakdown of the different seasons and what you can expect:

  1. Winter (November to April):

    • This is the peak tourist season due to the mild and pleasant weather.
    • Temperatures range from 20°C to 30°C, making it ideal for beach activities, water sports, and exploring the islands.
    • The sea remains calm during this time, perfect for activities like snorkeling, scuba diving, and swimming.
    • It's advisable to book accommodations and activities in advance as this is the busiest time for tourism.
  2. Summer (May to June):

    • Summer months can be hot and humid with temperatures ranging between 24°C to 37°C.
    • While it's still possible to visit during this time, it can be uncomfortable for outdoor activities due to the high humidity and occasional rainfall.
    • May and June also mark the onset of the monsoon season, so there may be occasional heavy showers and rough seas, limiting water-based activities.
  3. Monsoon (July to September):

    • This is the off-season for tourism due to heavy rainfall and rough seas.
    • The islands receive significant rainfall during the monsoon months, which can disrupt travel plans and limit outdoor activities.
    • However, if you're looking for a quieter and more budget-friendly experience, you may find good deals on accommodations during this time.
  4. Post-Monsoon (October):

    • October marks the transition period between the monsoon and winter seasons.
    • While there may still be some rainfall early in the month, the weather gradually improves, making it a good time to visit if you want to avoid the crowds of the peak season.
    • Water activities start to resume, and the islands begin to regain their vibrant colors after the monsoon rains.
