Kerala is one of the safest destinations to travel in India. It attracts tourists from all over the world who flock to it for experiencing its enthralling natural beauty and culture. This paradise on earth is rich in backwaters, diverse flora and fauna, forests, tea plantations, and rivers.

Best time to visit Kerala

Kerala has pleasing weather throughout the year. The best season to visit Kerala is from September to March. The weather is comfortable during this time, but not hot. If you’re planning on some Ayurveda treatments, then the monsoon season between June and August is ideal.

Travel Safety in Kerala

Now that you know it’s safe to travel to Kerala, you can plan your trip without a worry. However, do keep in mind these points before you travel there:

  • Although Kerala has an equitable climate throughout the year, don’t forget to pack in warm clothes if you’re going to Munnar or Thekkady as the temperatures are lower there
  • Foreigners need to apply for a visa 14 days before their date of travel from the nearest Indian Consulate
  • Avoid unsafe drinking water from the streets
  • International tourists may face jet lag as India’s time zone is GMT/UTC +5.30. So try to acclimatise yourself with some food, sleep, and rest.

2019 rain affected Malappuram and Wayanad district.

There were landslides and but it is not affected any of the tourist destinations. As of today its vey sunny and life is normal. Now its safe to travel.
Monsoon is also an ideal season to enjoy exploring Kerala. The vegetation and natural surroundings of God’s Own Country turn all the more alive when it rains. Since Monsoon is over it is time to visit Kerala.
