Rangat in September
Andaman & Nicobar Islands, India
Rangat in September is the slow tail of monsoon and the Middle Andaman stopover is mostly still impossible. Rainfall drops to 290-340mm, mostly in the first half. The Andaman Trunk Road has 2-3 unrepaired landslide stretches that the Andaman Public Works Department clears through October; the 170km drive from Port Blair takes 11-13 hours instead of 7-8. The ATR convoy returns to a 2-slot daily schedule mid-month. Amkunj Beach mangrove boardwalk is not certified open by Forest Department until October. Dhani Nallah waterfall trail stays closed. Rangat town hotels start reopening from mid-month at 700-1,000 rupees per night. Wait six weeks for November's clean opening.
