Ross Island (Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose Dweep) in December
Andaman & Nicobar Islands, India
Go in December—peak season means calm seas, clear skies, and reliable ferry schedules, but book boat tickets early on weekends or risk long waits.
Peak crowds
December is one of Ross Island (Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose Dweep)'s busiest months. The score rates conditions — weather, access, value — not how many people you'll share them with. Busiest Nov–Mar for dry weather and island tourism; monsoon and cyclone season (Jun–Sep) closes or severely restricts access.
December at Ross Island is when the heritage half-day runs at full strength. Air 23-29C, humidity at 70 percent, and the 20-minute Aberdeen Jetty crossing is glass-flat through almost every day of the month. Rainfall is 25-40mm scattered across 4-6 days. The 5:30pm light-and-sound show is at its absolute best - dry trade-wind air carries the audio cleanly, the ruins photograph against a star-clear sky, and the seats fill 90 minutes ahead through Christmas-NY week. Daytime visits are quiet 8:30-10am, packed 11am-1pm. Spotted deer come close on the central lawn. Christmas-NY week (December 22 to January 2) drives 50-60 percent premium on PB hotels. The first 18 days of December offer the same conditions at 35-40 percent lower hotel costs.
