The ideal time to visit Rameswaram is between October and April. During these months, the weather in this coastal town is generally pleasant, which makes it suitable for sightseeing and beach activities. The temperatures in winter, which run from October to February, range between a comfortable 17°C to 32°C. This period is excellent for visiting the sacred Ramanathaswamy Temple, exploring the historical remnants of the town, and enjoying the serene beaches such as Dhanushkodi without facing the harsh southern sun.
Starting from March, the heat begins to gradually rise, and by mid-summer, in April, it can get quite hot, with temperatures occasionally reaching around 37°C. However, if you can cope with the warmth, the advantage of visiting Rameswaram during this timeframe is the fewer crowds, which allows for a more tranquil experience at tourist spots. During these months, the sea remains relatively calm, and activities like glass boat rides at Pamban Bridge and observing marine life at the various beaches can be particularly enjoyable.
