Panaji in February: a fine time to go
February: 32°C days — and inside the recommended window.
February is the last month of Panaji's season (November – February), so the weather is on the turn and rates start to ease. Hot days around 32°C, nights near 21°C, almost no rain. Stays run about 30% above the usual rate this month. Goa Carnival can fall in February, which changes both prices and what you can book.
The season ends with February; March is outside the recommended window. The season runs to the end of March, next month. The rains usually arrive in June, 4 months away.
