Havelock Island (Swaraj Dweep) in October
Andaman & Nicobar Islands, India
October on Havelock is the season opener. Rainfall is 100-150mm, mostly in the first week, then stretches of dry weather. Air 24-30C, water 28-29C, humidity easing through 78 percent. By October 10 the major dive operators (Barefoot, Dive India, Ocean Tribe) are at full capacity with returning divemasters and freshly serviced kit. Underwater visibility recovers to 20-25m at Cinque Island and Pilot Reef. Ferries from Port Blair run their full peak timetable from October 15. The Bay of Bengal cyclone watch is real but most October systems track north toward Andhra Pradesh and Odisha rather than the Andamans. Hotel rates 30-40 percent below December peak.
