India

What's the weather like in India in September?

With vast landscapes ranging from stunning coasts to bustling cities, India has varying climates across the country. In September, most of India is at the tail end of the monsoon season, so although it can be quite wet, there’s not as much rain as July and August. In between the heavy downpours, there’s still plenty of sunshine and beautifully hot temperatures, so you can relax on the beach and explore the cultural sights.
