Being a tourist hotspot, Goa can be visited at any time of the year, but the best time to visit Goa is from mid-November through mid-February. The average temperature during this time is 20°C to 28°C. It is also the peak season when the tourist activity in Goa is highest, especially in the month of December due to Christmas and New Year festivities. The weather is pleasant and cool and most of the beach parties and festivals like Sunburn take place during this time, making it the best season to visit Goa. Wake up to perfect sunsets on the stunning beaches and majestic landscapes of Goa. Thanks to Goa weather being at its salubrious best throughout the year, it is a major holiday spot for travelers from all over the world.

The best time to visit Goa for water sports is during the winter season from mid-November till the mid of February. You can partake in watersports, like: water skiing, scuba diving, parasailing, angling, windsurfing, and more. While, the best time to visit Goa for honeymoon is during the monsoon season that runs from mid-June till October. Enjoy a sojourn there with your beloved for the love of Goa’s beaches and green landscapes.

Goa weather in June is also pretty pleasant, making it a good time to visit. The monsoon season is also a good time to visit Goa as the lush green countrysides look even more lively and colorful during the rains. Although there is no official off season time in Goa, the tourist inflow does lessen during the monsoons, since sightseeing and beach visits become nearly impossible during this time. The monsoon in Goa makes the state even greener than it already is, and for some people spending some time during the rainy season in Goa is a major attraction.

Let’s take a look at the below month-wise segregation to help you decide on the best month to visit Goa.

March - May: As the temperature soars to the highest degree at this time of the year, and the weather is quite high and humid, people often avoid visiting Goa during the months of March to May. However, as the prices of accommodation are quite low, one can consider this period for a budget tour.

June - September: And, here comes the monsoon season with the arrival of the month of June. Moreover, as during this time of the year, Goa hosts a bevy of parties and festivals, it can be a good time to visit here, and indulge in its vibrant and lively environs. In addition to that, June to September is also a good time to experience lush greenery, and avail a great amount of discounts on accommodations for a memorable experience. Best places to visit in Goa in monsoon are Dudhsagar Falls, Mhadei River, Spice Gardens.

October - February: With the beginning of the month of October is the best time of the year to visit Goa. Courtesy to the comfortable and pleasantly cool weather, this is one of the most preferred times to laze along the sandy beaches and enjoy sunbathing. Especially, the weather of Goa in December is quite soothing to enjoy a sojourn there. Though, as it is the peak season of tourism in Goa, the prices of accommodation are quite high. And thus, it is recommended to make your booking in advance.

    "I would like to express my gratitude to Shri Avinash Kumar from Goa Original, in association with Travel Triangle, for the exceptional service provided during our entire tour of Goa. From planning to execution, every detail was meticulously taken care of, ensuring a smooth and enjoyable experience.
    His professionalism, promptness, and friendly demeanor truly made our trip memorable. However, the car driver's service was not up to the mark and could use some improvement. Overall, a great experience, and I highly recommend their services for a Goa vacation!"

    Anand's 4 days trip to Goa

    Avinash coordinated everything well. I primarily handled all the city transfers, sightseeing, and hotel bookings. Everything went smoothly, although I didn’t stretch my itinerary too much since I was traveling with my 2-year-old baby. I always made sure to end our day trips a bit earlier. I highly
    recommend Avinash for my future bookings and to my friends and family.

    Sourav

    Sourav's 4 days trip to Goa

    Hotel room and food: Before we start the trip, one PDF of the particular hotel room has been sent to us. But the real picture of that hotel room was very poor. Welcome drink was not served from the hotel, even it is mentioned in the itinerary. We had to ask for it. The condition of AC, wall paint, d
    usting in not at all upto the mark. Food from the particular hotel was really tasteless. But the buffet breakfast was better. The name of the hotel is MAYFIELD BOUTIQUE HOTEL, CALANGUTE. They have told us that they will change the room in next day, but that was done in the last of our trip and for that we didn't change. Transportation: The first car and the driver were not good. Car was not comfortable, AC was not working properly, it was smelly inside, one t shirt was hanging on the sit. But from the next day we got very good cars and drivers as we had informed our travel agent. They solved that issue. Othe drivers were very helpful, professional, polite, informative. We felt safe. Itinerary and the Travel agent: Travel agents were good, they listened to us. But the problem is, they didn't communicate with us in their end. We had to communicate and ask for the next day's plan from our end firstly. Whatever we planned before the trip started, an another itinerary was given to us just one day before. But, for the few times we editted our plans, and they tried to keep it in that way only . Overall: Trip experience was not bad but little bit hectic what shouldn't have been like that as it was a complete conducted tour by the tour operator. Suggestion: Tour operator should be little bit more communicative Dolphin Safari
