Climate of Lakshadweep Island

Lakshadweep has a tropical climate, with summer temperatures ranging from 35 degrees centigrade to 22 degrees centigrade, and winter temperature between 32 degrees to 20 degrees centigrade. Though the resort is open round the year, May to September is the ideal time to be on the islands.

During monsoons, ship-based tourism is closed but helicopter services are available. Some effect of the northeast monsoon is felt in October-November in the form of light transitory showers. Tropical clothes throughout the year are sufficient. A waterproof coat during October-November is useful.
