Agatti Island in August
Lakshadweep, India
August in Agatti is more of July with marginally fewer wet days. Rainfall sits at 300-400mm, sea state remains rough, and the resort-and-dive infrastructure stays closed. The standout date is August 15 — Independence Day — when no tourist landings happen on any inhabited Lakshadweep island regardless of weather, a routine security tightening across the Coast Guard-administered chain. Alliance Air's scheduled service stays suspended through August 31. Lakshadweep Tourism permit applications for August dates aren't accepted; the office begins processing September-onward applications mid-month, with priority for September arrivals going to long-lead travelers who applied in May-June. The first viable arrival window is the third week of September, and even those bookings are conditional on weather. The cleanest planning move from August is to lock October dates and submit the permit application now.
Why August scores 2.0/10

Monsoon continues. 300-400mm rain. Independence Day brings security tightening but no functional access.
