Trivandrum, India in July - a really bad idea?

Question

Hello - I have always wanted to go to India and would like to go in July but I think it is the monsoon season then.

Should I risk it or is it definately not advisable?

Thanks

Answer 1

I would say, you will like Trivandrum in July, if you are a person who enjoys those drizzles and showers and those greenery everywhere. It may not be the best time to visit Kerala, but its not the worst. Anyway, as an outsider, you may not be comfortable during the summer season, because, except for the high ranges and the like places, it'll be hot and humid. But all other seasons are good for travel in Trivandrum. Welcome to The Land of Spices!

Hi Mr. Harry,
I Live in Trivandrum . I would say Kerala is an all time welcoming land! Especially in Monsoon even though the climate is little moody the Nature will be greeny greeny every where !
It will give you a fresh look of Kerala. Past few years rainy seasons starts by May itself so there would n't be frequent rain in July. If your travel is not just to visit you can stay in well known healing Spiritual centers in Kerala. plz do hire a taxi for a day always so that if the weather is not comfi for you you can go back or if you can enjoy the moods clouds & rain provide to vitalize our mind then do enjoy....and scrible down .....

Do you know what I think ---- It would be best if your boyfriend GOT RID of him now and give him back to whoever bred this dog and let them start again. For a start you have him way too early. He should not have left his litter until 8 weeks old and we on here therefore know that this is a not only byb's dog who has had a mixed breeding but also has got shot of the litter to save her some money and from cleaning up all the poop and pees that a litter of pups do. He is far too young to expect to get housetrained in 5 days anyway, and if you can't cope with it then what are you going to do for the next approx. 4 months that he will still have accidents in the house. Then he shouldn't be out on a PROPER WALK at all. He is far too young to have got his vaccinations yet let alone cleared them all by 10 days. A puppy is close to 3 months by the time it is clear to go out. Then a young puppy of this age should not be on Proper walks anyway because of its joints. You will be talking 5 mins per day per month of life for walking plus free play indoors or out. If you have bought a puppy that is too young anyway, and are in a flat then you have to understand that it is going to take a while to get this. A puppy of this age cannot hold it, just like a human baby. You are expecting way too much. Look into crate training.

Terrible time to go to the east coast and especially Trivandrum. The beaches will be filled with seaweed and trash. Trivandrum floods also. Very difficult to get around. Jan. through March is perfect.

Answer 6

No it is not all that bad. Infact by mid Jul, the monsoon will slow down and TVM will be ok unlike those up west India.
Go ahead and enjoy Kovalam .

July is not at all a good time to visit Kerala as it is rainy season there and many areas get flooded..
