Best Time to Visit Andaman
Winter (November to February)
This is the peak tourist season in the Andaman Islands, with pleasant temperatures ranging from 20°C to 30°C and low humidity. The weather is ideal for beach activities, snorkeling, scuba diving, and exploring the coral reefs around Havelock and Neil Islands. Clear skies and calm seas make it perfect for water sports and sightseeing. This season suits families, honeymooners, and adventure seekers looking for comfortable weather and vibrant marine life.
Summer (March to May)
Temperatures rise to 30°C–35°C, and humidity increases, making it hotter but still manageable due to the sea breeze. This is a good time for travelers who prefer fewer crowds and lower prices, though water activities may sometimes be affected by occasional rough seas. Early summer is suitable for those interested in exploring the islands’ natural beauty and historical sites like Cellular Jail without peak season rush.
Monsoon (June to September)
The islands experience heavy rainfall and strong winds during the monsoon, with temperatures between 24°C and 30°C. Many water-based activities are limited due to safety concerns, and some ferry services may be disrupted. This season is best avoided for leisure travel but can appeal to those interested in the lush greenery and off-season solitude.
Best months: November to February for the most enjoyable weather and full access to island activities.
