The ideal time to visit Mangaluru, located on the Arabian Sea coast, is during the winter season, which spans from the months of December to February. During this period, the weather tends to be quite pleasant with moderate temperatures that usually range between 17°C to 34°C. The humidity, which is otherwise quite high in this coastal city, is comparatively less in the winter, making outdoor activities and sightseeing more comfortable for visitors. Winter in Mangaluru is also characterized by clear skies and a cool sea breeze, providing a perfect setting for exploring the city's attractions, such as beaches, temples, and parks.
The summer months, from March to May, are usually hot and humid, with temperatures soaring above 35°C. The monsoon season, which starts in June and lasts until September, sees heavy rainfall, due to which it might not be the best time for tourists looking to explore the city comfortably. However, for those who enjoy the monsoon and the lush green surroundings it brings, post-monsoon, from late September to November can be a good option. This time of the year offers a respite from heavy rains while still allowing visitors to admire the scenery in its full bloom after the monsoon showers.
