Panaji in November: a fine time to go

Good time to visit · fit score 84/100Crowds: highStays ~30% pricier than peak

November: 32°C days — and inside the recommended window.

November is the first month of Panaji's season (November – February), so rates are not yet at peak and the crowds are thinner. Hot days around 32°C, nights near 23°C, the odd shower. Stays run about 30% above the usual rate this month. International Film Festival of India can fall in November, which changes both prices and what you can book.

December is in season too. The season runs to the end of February, 3 months away. The rains usually arrive in June, 7 months away.
