In this article, we will be covering how your trip experience would be like if you travel to Andamans in April.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Weather &amp; Climate <\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff6600\">The Andaman Islands experience a tropical climate and the weather here remains the same throughout the year.<\/span> It is a destination that can be visited during all seasons. Usually, people have a perception that it is good to visit the islands only <span style=\"color: #0000ff\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff\" href=\"https:\/\/www.experienceandamans.com\/blog\/how-is-andaman-in-october-november-december-and-january\/\">from October to March<\/a><\/span>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.experienceandamans.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Andaman-April-Weather-2020.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2242\" src=\"https:\/\/www.experienceandamans.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Andaman-April-Weather-2020.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"511\" height=\"531\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.experienceandamans.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/april-month-weather-graph-andaman.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2678\" src=\"https:\/\/www.experienceandamans.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/april-month-weather-graph-andaman.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"645\" height=\"428\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Please check this data of weather in the Andaman Islands. So this gives another clear dimension of travelling to Andaman in April month. Basically, the weather is not too hot as many parts of India and the maximum temperature goes to 33 degree celsius.<\/p>\n<p>People perceive that the islands will have heavy summers and skip traveling to Andamans in April. I feel that it is a wrong conception that people have as<span style=\"color: #ff6600\"> the weather here remains calm and mild with just the humidity quotient being a little high.<\/span> The humidity quotient is the only difference between April and other months as it is on a higher side. We can compare the weather in Andamans during April to that of Mumbai City.<\/p>\n<p>April falls in the middle of the main season and summer. <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">The weather during this time is not as hot as people assume it to be.<\/span> In Andamans, there is <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">no winter<\/span>,it is neither too hot nor cold.<span style=\"color: #ff6600\"> It is calm and mild.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Humidity vs. Heat of April<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Many travelers equate April with a scorching heat. Typically, people from mainland India find this quite relevant. However, the Andaman experience is significantly different because of its unique geographical setting. From a strong maritime influence to acting as a natural coolant, Andaman offers countless benefits. Being surrounded by the Bay of Bengal, the constant flow of sea breeze will leave you spellbound.<\/p>\n<p>Compared to the peak winter months, the humidity is slightly higher in April to give you the feel of the tropical coastal cities like Mumbai. Expect mild and pleasant weather with exceptional sea conditions. It is a season of calmest waters of the year to experience excellent underwater visibility. Naturally, April is the month for divers and snorkelers to make their way to the Andamans.<span style=\"color: #ff6600\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Activities &amp; Attractions Open During April<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000\">All the <a style=\"color: #000000\" href=\"https:\/\/www.experienceandamans.com\/water-sports\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff\">water activities<\/span><\/a> and attractions are open and operational in April.<\/span> It won\u2019t be as hot as people expect it to be you will be able to <span style=\"color: #000000\">relax and enjoy <\/span>your activities at the beaches and other attractions.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000\">Activities such as <a style=\"color: #000000\" href=\"https:\/\/www.experienceandamans.com\/water-sports\/scubadiving\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff\">Scuba Diving<\/span><\/a>, <a style=\"color: #000000\" href=\"https:\/\/www.experienceandamans.com\/water-sports\/snorkeling\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff\">Snorkeling<\/span><\/a>, <a style=\"color: #000000\" href=\"https:\/\/www.experienceandamans.com\/water-sports\/parasailing\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff\">Parasailing<\/span><\/a>, <a style=\"color: #000000\" href=\"https:\/\/www.experienceandamans.com\/water-sports\/seawalk\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff\">Sea Walk<\/span><\/a>, and other Speed Boat Rides, etc can be availed of at the islands.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Beaches that are open in April<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000\">To name a few beautiful beaches<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #0000ff\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff\" href=\"https:\/\/www.experienceandamans.com\/andaman-tourism\/havelock\/places\/elephant-beach\">Elephant Beach<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #0000ff\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff\" href=\"https:\/\/www.experienceandamans.com\/andaman-tourism\/havelock\/places\/radhanagar-beach\">Radhanagar<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #0000ff\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff\" href=\"https:\/\/www.experienceandamans.com\/andaman-tourism\/havelock\/places\/kalapathar-beach\">Kalapathar<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #0000ff\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff\" href=\"https:\/\/www.experienceandamans.com\/andaman-tourism\/neil\/places\/laxmanpur-beach\">Laxmanpur<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p>and <a style=\"color: #000000\" href=\"https:\/\/www.experienceandamans.com\/andaman-tourism\/port-blair\/places\/corbyns-cove-beach\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff\">Corbyn\u2019s Cove<\/span><\/a> is all great places to visit for some fun and adventure.

In this way, you can enjoy majority of the attractions without bothering much about the tropical humidity:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Start Early<\/strong>: Scuba diving, snorkeling, and sea walks are ideal between 6:00 AM and 10:00 AM. The sun remains less intense during these early hours keeping the water cool. As April is the month of calmest seas here, getting into the water before midday light is again a happening thing to do.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Mid-Day Retreat<\/strong>: Plan the mid-day hours (11:30 AM and 3:30 PM) seeking shade beneath the air-conditioned environments. Samudrika Marine Museum or the Anthropological Museum of Port Blair are ideal picks for this phase. You will also find many of your co-travelers enjoying their resort\u2019s pool time or taking a \u2018siesta.\u2019 Nevertheless, it is also a good way to conserve your energy for the later part of the day.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Sunsets<\/strong>: You can now head back to the popular coastlines like Radhanagar or Laxmanpur 4:00 PM is the ideal time to spend here as the evening sea breeze kicks in. This experience is famously refreshing during the Andaman summers as it significantly lowers the perceived temperature. The thinner April tourist crowds makes sunset hours a peaceful and private experience compared to the peak winter months.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>The &#8220;Lull&#8221;<\/strong>: Less crowd means more discounts. Yes, you can expect your overall trip cost to go down by 15 to 20% in April and less queues at popular ferry terminals than December.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>Packing Essentials for the Andaman Summer<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Now, when you know why April is the best month to explore Andaman, check the list below for your packing essentials. Refining your luggage ensures that you stay in your own comfort even at 30\u00b0C to 33\u00b0C.<\/p>\n<p>\u25cf <strong>Fabric Choice:<\/strong> Lightweight linens, moisture-wicking technical fabrics, and breathable cottons are much better than heavy denims or synthetic blends. These lightweight fabrics trap heat. \u2018Dry-fit\u2019 clothing is best if you are a jungle trek enthusiast. So, pack a couple of them if you have places like Baratang or Mount Harriet on your to-do. These clothes handle the tropical sweat much better than any of your other traditional fabrics.<\/p>\n<p>\u25cf <strong>Sun Protection:<\/strong> Pair up your high-SPF sunscreen with full-sleeve rash guards for a total sun protection. These are ideal wear for outdoor activities like sea walks and snorkeling. With the calm and clear seas in April, the sunrays can easily make their way into deep waters. Accordingly, you may be exposed to sunburn risks more while enjoying your marine life.<\/p>\n<p>\u25cf <strong>Hydration Kits:<\/strong> It is important to have a good hydration kit in your April Andaman backpack. Add some electrolyte sachets, glucose powders and ORS to keep your salt and minerals levels optimum during the high tropical humidity. Staying hydrated is a good strategy to make you feel less fatigue and reserve your energy for the late evening beach strolls.<\/p>\n<p>\u25cf <strong>Footwear:<\/strong> You will need breathable trekking sandals and water shoes too. These sturdy footwear are important to navigate the limestone caves or walk alongside the rocky stretches of Kalapathar Beach.<\/p>\n<p>\u25cf <strong>Waterproof Dry Bags:<\/strong> As all water sports and ferry rides remain operational, a small dry bag could be essential to pack your electronics and travel documents from sea spray. You will find a lot of Havelock or Neil Island visitors carrying them as their traveler\u2019s comfort.<\/p>\n<p>\u25cf <strong>Evening Wear:<\/strong> After 4:00 pm, expect a drop in temperature. Light and airy clothing are ideal for Andaman late evening strolls. The sea breeze picks up and comfortable, lightweight attire are best for coastline walks or a fine dine luxury moment.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>The &#8220;Hidden&#8221; Savings<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>April in Andamans is the best experiences to enjoy high-end luxury at a mid-range budget:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Resort Discounts:<\/strong> You will find several 4-star and 5-star properties offering \u2018Summer Special\u2019 discounts up to 15 to 20%.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Personalized Service:<\/strong> As the occupancy remains low, the visitors get more personalized attention.
