The best time to visit Chungam is during the dry season, which runs from October to March, offering pleasant weather for exploring.During these months, the temperatures are comfortable, typically ranging from 20 to 30 degrees Celsius, with lower humidity. This makes it ideal for enjoying outdoor activities, visiting the backwaters, and exploring the local culture without the disruption of heavy monsoon rains.For those looking to experience local festivals, the Onam festival, usually held in August or September, is a spectacular event. While this falls just outside the peak dry season, the tail end of the monsoon can still offer lush green landscapes, and the cultural celebrations are truly special. However, be prepared for occasional showers.Travellers who prefer cooler temperatures and a calmer atmosphere will find November to February particularly appealing.
