Ross Island (Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose Dweep) in May
Andaman & Nicobar Islands, India
May at Ross Island splits cleanly in two. The first fortnight extends April - 28-33C, ferries on time, the heritage walk and 5:30pm show on full schedule. From May 18, the southwest monsoon advance arrives as 4-6pm squalls, and the open-air show is first to suspend on rough evenings. Day-time access continues unaffected most of the month - Aberdeen Jetty cancels only on the worst sea-state days, still rare in May. PB hotel rates 35-40 percent below January peak. The show is the catch: half of late-May evenings cancel or run abbreviated. Plan for the first 18 days or accept the show is a coin-flip.
Why May scores 8.0/10
