Kutch in Winter (November-February)

This is the time when the desert comes to life in its full glory of thousand hues. The days are hot but pleasant whereas the temperature tends to drop to single digits once the sun sets.

The culture of desert tribes, the full moon nights, and the sound of music and the sight of dance, bonfires across the dunes ? there is nothing not to love about Kutch during winter. If you find yourself in Rann, do not miss the horseback and camel rides. Besides, hiring an ATV and going for paramotoring is something worth undertaking! Being the time for festivals, winter is the hence the ideal time to visit Kutch.

To wrap things up, the tourist season in Kutch starts in October and ends by March. The winter season is undoubtedly the best time to visit Kutch for mainly two reasons ? the pleasant climate guaranteeing ease of sightseeing and the season of festivals energises the ambience of the place even more. Bird watching sites are also at its prime during the beginning of winter.

Monsoon is not always the best time to visit as many places are banned due to rainfall and water logging issues. Finally, the worst time being the summer season that is hot and humid, making it extremely difficult and uncomfortable for the tourists to explore the place properly.

Kutch in Monsoon (June-September)

The rains arrive in Kutch by the end of June and last all the way until September. Although the showers are not severe, it still serves the purpose of relieving the area from the heat. The surrounding regions start turning green and the Banni Grasslands blossoms in the parched lands. It is during the monsoon when migratory birds arrive at Kutch in large numbers, which is a pleasing sight for the sore eyes. You can plan a visit to the various sanctuaries spread across Kutch. These sanctuaries are the safe havens for local wildlife, such as the Wild Ass. If you are a nature enthusiast and are into wildlife photography, Kutch during the monsoon season will be a land of treasure for you! However, a lot depends on the road connectivity provided waterlogging scenarios are not hindering them.

Kutch in Summer (April-June)

The summer begins from the month of April and lasts till the month of June. Kutch is absolute not an ideal place to visit during the summer season. The sun pours it rage on the land without any mercy. It is furiously hot with temperatures going up to 50 degree Celsius at noon. Although the nights are considerably cooler, the arid landscapes with no sign of vegetation to offer any calmness make Kutch not a suitable destination for summer travellers.
