Weather in Goa in March

March in Goa is a hot month. Plan the serious walking for morning. The rest of the day wants shade and a slower pace.

In India, this is how Goa actually wears March, not how a country centroid would. Compared with April and December, March sits in the middle of Goa's year.

What to expect

Daytime

Hot days in Goa. Ruins, markets and hills are a morning job. Midday sightseeing is how people remember March for the wrong reason.

Nights stay warm. Air-con, if you can get it, is part of the brief. A jumper for March in Goa is almost always a waste of bag space.

Rain

Rain is not the story in Goa in March. Pack for sun. A shower would be news, not a plan.

Do not build the trip around weather windows. Build it around shade if it is hot, and around getting outside if it is not.

Evening

Evenings stay warm.
