Morjim in August
Goa, India
August in Morjim is more of July with the worst of the southwest current beginning to ease in the final week. Rainfall 500-700mm across 22-24 wet days. Sea swimming still prohibited under advisory. All shacks remain dismantled. La Plage reopens around August 25-30 — earliest of the seasonal kitchens to come back. Sur La Mer at ₹12-15k; Marbela Beach at ₹4.5-5k. Forest Department turtle patrols still off-season; Olive Ridley arrivals begin only in mid-October. Ganesh Chaturthi (variable date late August or early September) shuts much of Hindu Goa for 5-11 days; coastal Morjim largely unaffected — most operations Catholic-and-Russian-run. Trip you came for is closed in August. Push to mid-October when the turtle nesting reopens and the beach rebuilds.
