Baratang Island in April
Andaman & Nicobar Islands, India
Baratang in April is when the day-trip mechanics keep working but the heat starts hitting hard. Daytime 27-32C, humidity 80 percent, and the mud volcano viewing platform - exposed, treeless, 7km from the jetty - is genuinely unpleasant after 11am. The 5:30am ATR convoy is the planner's slot; the 12:30pm gets you back to the volcano in midday sun. The limestone cave is still dry-floor, the creek boat ride still calm, the convoy still on schedule. Rainfall is 60-90mm, mostly evening squalls. Tour operators drop packages to 1,400-1,800 rupees per head. Carry 3L water per person, electrolytes, sun cap. Confirm the 4am wake-up plan with the hotel night desk before sleeping.
