When to go Kerala ?
The monsoon season and the many religious festivals are the state's major events. Hindu festivals of course, such as the famous Thrissur Pooram, but Kerala has a multicultural identity where Muslims and Catholics celebrate their religious festivals with equal fervor. These ancient traditions coexist harmoniously with a variety of cultural events such as the Thiruvananthapuram Film Festival and the Kochi-Muziris Biennale of Contemporary Art.
The weather in Kerala is tropical, so the region does not experience great climatic variations. There are, of course, dry (peak in April and May) and wet seasons. The southwest monsoon reaches the coast in early June and, within a few days, it spreads to Maharashtra and covers the whole country by mid-July. Temperatures in Kerala oscillate throughout the year between 25 and 30 °C.
