June to August (sometimes till mid-September) is the season of monsoon in Kerala. Most regions of the state receive heavy rainfall, and the levels of humidity are at its peak. It gets an average annual rainfall of over 3000 mm, and the temperature hovers between 29°C and 35°C and the humidity is between 65 to 73%.
Monsoons, therefore, is not quite the best time to explore. Some, however, do wish to visit the state for traditional Ayurvedic treatments that Kerala is famous for. They can stay for a few weeks or months at one of the several nature resorts Kerala houses, but the torrential downpour won’t allow tourists to explore much of the state. The terrain gets covered with dense vegetation, and there’s only nature to accompany the one searching for some solace.
During this season, one may also witness the festivals of Ramadan, Eid-Ul-Fitr Kalampattu Festival, Feast of Our Lady of Snow, Feast of Martashmooni Amma, Pongal which are some of the festivals celebrated in July/ August.
