:yikes that IS low - lowest I got was 72.5 - highest I got was 75 (in November). Hope things improve by March but with the way the world is at the moment, I shan't hold my breath. Fizz

Hi.
What sort of weather can we expect in Goa at the start of April? I've been spending time looking at the HT photo albums and noticed a couple of pictures taken in March where there'd been loads of rain. Thanks

Last year end of March / beginning of April there was some rain, we got rained off the beach once and a couple of times in the evening - which meant you needed to think of where you were eating in terms of whether they had shelter.

Generally it is very warm and the humidity is high, the sea is like stepping into a bath!

rain is very unusual in march or April, despite the showers last year this isnt the norm, April is very hot and extreemly humid...

Thanks for both replies. We love HOT!! and the sea being like a bath sounds like heaven. Is the sea calm and safe ? We're considering Candolim or Calangute and just to stay on topic ;) are the evenings hot too?
