Goa being in the tropical zone has a hot and humid climate for most of the year. The winter season between October to February is the best time to visit Goa when the weather is pleasantly cool and is also, the best time to participate in adventure activities. Christmas and new year are the peak tourist seasons in Goa. Not many people visit Goa between March and May since the sea becomes rougher and the weather turns hot and humid. If you love the monsoon and the lush green countryside that the rain Gods turn Goa into, July to September is a great time to visit. One of the reasons to visit Goa during monsoons is also due to the festival of Sao-Joao that is held during late June.
