The transition from spring to summer is marked by the arrival of March. Inviting climate. The peak season of local festivals. Warm days and cool nights. It is ideal to take a trip during this time and make most of the pleasant weather. Whether you are a mountain person or a beach lover, there’s a place for every kind of traveler who wishes to take a trip during this month in India.

Visiting Goa is surely in everyone’s list, but during March it gets even better with the vibrant Shigmo festival. It is a Hindu festival which spans over a fortnight. One can witness parades, cultural nights, folk dances, basically a true Goan experience! Apart from soothing winds and calm sea waves, you will also be saving bucks during this month. Thanks to the off-season!

Another ideal place to visit in March is the Hovelock island in Andaman. If you like to get close to nature then this is the place. Clean beaches, fresh cuisine and most importantly smooth sea. You can indulge in numerous water activities as well.

Ooty is another popular hill station that can be visited throughout the year, but March is something special. This place even gets better post-spring season. You can book your stay in the middle of a plantation or how about staying in a lofty wooden lodge? You will be surrounded by lush green beauty and scenic hills. You can take a walk in the spice gardens or participate in tea-making workshops. Hiking is equally good here.

If you’re looking for a place specifically for your Holi holidays, then Udaipur is the place to be! The celebration of colours is done at a grand level. It kick starts with lighting the bonfire on the day before Holi, followed by the play of colour on the next day. You can also try some Holi-special cuisines here.
