Majuli in October
Assam, India
Go in October — the island is lush and accessible after monsoon, temperatures are mild (18–28°C), and flooding has receded, though some areas remain under recovery.
Peak crowds
October is one of Majuli's busiest months. The score rates conditions — weather, access, value — not how many people you'll share them with. Raas Leela festival (Nov) is spectacular but book accommodation weeks ahead. Monsoon floods the island — do NOT visit Jun-Sep.
October reopens Majuli — post-flood green, ferries reliable, satras resuming cultural programs.
The October story
October is when Majuli comes back to life. Lush green island, reliable ferries, monks preparing for Raas Leela. Beautiful cycling weather.
