Gollum Posted June 15, 2019 Share Posted June 15, 2019 (edited) This may sound counter-intuitive but IMO Goa is at its most beautiful (lush green, waterfalls, trekking, getting wet in beachside) during monsoon....and yeah it rains a lot. Prices too will be much cheaper. Edited June 15, 2019 by Gollum beetle, randomGuy, Mariyam and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never understood why people consider rains as romantic. Traffic jams, keechad everywhere, car gets dirty, overflowing nalas, traffic jams. What is supposed to be romantic about this again? beetle, rkt.india and Cricketics 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't flood in Goa. Only keechad is in sabzi and machchi mandi. Rest all water gets drained quickly . Staying wet doesn't make you sick in Goa...just drive around and the clothes get dry. Traffic jamsunfortunately they have become routine in main roads but just go into the inner village roads and they are fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In Delhi rainy season is THE WORST. 5 minutes of halki si drizzle and you see drains flowing as if it's Cherrapunji. The humidity that follows is unbearable since the houses are constructed in such a way that blocks all the wind thus making the indoors suffocating. You get to shower like twice a day.

In Goa most of the pools are in the open and are out of bounds during the monsoons. Ditto water sports. Most of the fishermen do not venture out and except for prawns that they farm in the man made lagoons, you don't have much variety in the sea food. Why would your clothes get dry if you drove around? The upholstery would also be damp for a long time. All in all no fun if it rains. Goa in Dec/Jan >>>> Goa in the rainy season.

I blame Bollywood. They've romanticised the rains far too much. I mean who doesn't enjoy Ye raat bheegi bheegi Tip tip barsa paani tum hi ho (aashiqui 2) and the like But what they don't show is that to get to the under construction building in Malad ( or was it Versova?) Akshay Kumar would have taken 2 hours and 5 canisters of deodorant to get there prim and proper.

Haarkarjeetgaye Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 Pune to Goa drive. Goa via Konkan Railways Pune and around forts are heavenly in monsoons. Mahabaleshwar, Panchgani, Matheran beetle 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rkt.india Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 (edited) Any hills station but condition is you need to go there when there is no rain because roads can get blocked. Once you are there, you will enjoy the cool weather and the clouds floating in front of you. Mussoorie will be fine in Monsoons to witness this but driving can be difficult at times when fog surrounds you.

Ek bullet,ek bulet chalane wala handsome dude and halki halki baarish . Clothes get dry because you are on the bike and moving from rainy to non rainy places.We have gone chasing the rain from one place to another.

Haarkarjeetgaye Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 I would avoid any North India place to enjoy monsoons. Maharashtra, Karnataka, Kerala and parts of TN are the places to be in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
