Port Blair (Sri Vijaya Puram) in July
Andaman & Nicobar Islands, India
July in Port Blair is monsoon at its most stubborn. Rainfall averages 480mm across 25-27 wet days. Phoenix Bay ferries run sporadically when at all; the high-speed Makruzz pulls boats off route entirely on the worst weeks. Dive visibility collapses to 5-8m at every site, dive operators on Havelock shut for the season. Air temperature 25-29C is deceptively mild, but 90+ percent humidity and constant downpour make clothing impossible to dry. Power cuts run 4-6 hours daily as the grid takes hits. Domestic flights still operate but on a thinner timetable. There is no version of the Andamans trip that works in July. Wait for October.
