The best time to visit Gangasagar is during the winter months from November to February when the weather is pleasant and ideal for travel. Specifically, the most popular time is during the Ganga Sagar Mela, held in mid-January yearly to celebrate Makar Sankranti.
Why Winter is Ideal:
- Pleasant Weather: The temperature ranges between 12°C to 25°C, providing a comfortable climate for sightseeing and spiritual activities.
- Ganga Sagar Mela: Pilgrims and tourists gather at the confluence of the Ganges and Bay of Bengal for holy dips and rituals during this festival.
Avoid Visiting During:
- Summer (March to June): The weather becomes extremely hot and humid, making it uncomfortable for travel.
- Monsoon (July to September): Heavy rainfall can disrupt travel and affect accessibility to the island.
For spiritual seekers and travellers, January during Makar Sankranti is the most culturally significant and vibrant time to experience Gangasagar.
