Bangaram Island in June
Lakshadweep, India
June on Bangaram is the island returning to its baseline state — uninhabited, unreachable, untouristed. Bangaram Island Resort has been closed since around May 15 and stays shuttered until late September. The 30-minute Agatti-Bangaram speedboat is dry-docked. Sustained 30-40 knot SW monsoon winds whip the lagoon into 2-3 metre chop, the western reef wall takes the full force of the swell, and even the supply boats from Kochi avoid the cluster. Air 25-28C, rainfall 350-450mm across the month, often as 12-hour deluges. Lakshadweep Tourism doesn't issue tourist permits for June arrivals to any island in the chain, including a non-existent Bangaram visit. The dive school is shut, the bar is shut, the entire visitor stack is offline. The next viable arrival is the resort's September re-opening, typically around September 25-30.
