Temperature: Starting from October to March, the climate is very pleasant and cool, with an average daytime temperature falling somewhere between 25 to 30 degrees celsius, and nighttime temperatures dropping down to about 20 to 22 degrees. There’s absolutely no chill here during these months, though. So if you’re looking for nice winter chills and subzero temperatures, Andaman isn’t the right pick.

Monsoon months: The rainyseason in Andaman begins from July, and lasts upto September. It is the second of the two seasons that grace Andaman.

Temperature: Ranging from 24 to 32 degrees during the day, and dropping to 22 - 27 during the night, the climate is pleasant. The tropical climate of Andaman receives a heavy rainfall which is about 300 mm. So if you are someone who does not like constant rains, this season may not be the right choice for you.

Activities: Monsoon is not the right time to do waterspouts and hence Andamans water sports like scuba diving, snorkelling, surfing, and jet skiing are shut during the monsoon.
