The Sundarbans, with its unique mangrove forests and diverse wildlife, is a stunning destination to explore, but the best time to visit is during the winter months, from November to February. During this period, the weather is pleasantly cool and dry, making it ideal for outdoor activities such as boat safaris and wildlife spotting. The temperatures range from 10°C to 25°C, offering a comfortable experience for visitors.
Additionally, the winter season provides excellent visibility for spotting the elusive Royal Bengal Tiger and other wildlife, including deer, crocodiles, and various bird species. The pleasant weather allows tourists to enjoy activities without the discomfort of excessive heat or humidity.
Another good time to visit is during the pre-monsoon months of March to early June. While it can get hot, this period offers the chance to see the landscape in full bloom, and wildlife becomes more active as they seek water sources.
Avoid visiting during the monsoon season from June to October, as heavy rainfall can hinder travel plans and wildlife sightings. In summary, for a fulfilling experience in the Sundarbans, plan your visit between November and February for the best weather and wildlife viewing opportunities.
