Coorg is a popular spot for tourists as it has amazing views and friendly locals. However, in order to have the most enjoyable time, you need to know when to visit this destination. This is what you can expect each season in Coorg.

Coorg During The Summer Months

When: March Through May

Summer Events: Shivarathri

This is a popular time to visit Coorg as temperatures remain less than 34 degrees Celsius, so it isn't too hot or too cold. Because the weather is so nice, it can get crowded. This means that you may need to wait in line at popular attractions and you should book your hotel reservations early in order to get the room that you want. It isn't quite as crowded as it tends to be in the winter though, so it can still be a less popular time of year to visit.

If you don't mind the rain, you will experience less crowds than you would during the summer or winter months. You may also be able to get a good deal as far as travel expenses go.
