Chilly weather and an ever-bourgeoning foliage make this the best time to visit Kumarakom. If you are planning a monsoon escapade then don’t forget to carry waterproof baggage and raincoats.
Wonderful winters
Winter starts from November and extends till February and is also considered the best time to visit Kumarakom. First the monsoons leave behind greenery, and then winters bring down the temperatures to a pleasant 18 degree Celsius (reducing the humidity), making it a perfect season for a trip here. You can try out boating in the backwaters, water sports on the beaches and many other activities as most of these activities are allowed only during winters.
