Best Time To Visit Maharashtra
Plan your trip during best season to experience the best of this stunning destination
Nestled in the western and central parts of India, Maharashtra is a testament to its rich heritage. Maharashtra is home to beautiful beaches, lush green mountains, and fascinating woodlands. The Gateway of India, Panchgani, Lonavala, and Mumbai are prominent tourist spots that attract many visitors yearly. Despite a thriving economy with several bustling metro cities, the region harbours some delightful places to escape the fast-paced urban life.
Maharashtra experiences extreme cold or dry temperatures throughout the year. With an average temperature between 16 and 32 degrees, winter, i.e., October to February, is the best time to visit Maharashtra for sightseeing, trekking, and swimming. However, from March to May, the temperature rises to 40 degrees Celsius, making it difficult for tourists to enjoy sightseeing. The rainy season in Maharashtra begins in June and continues till September. The weather of Maharashtra remains wet for most of the year, and the lush green valleys in the hill stations here are pleasing to the eyes.
