South Goa in November

Hi,

I’ve come to Goa the last 3 years in either February or March but am looking at coming mid-November this year.

Just a few questions in particular about Palolem/Patnem/Agonda area.

• How is the weather in November compared to February? Any more cloudy/chance of rain or much like February with good sun most days?

• Is everything open, beach shacks, accommodation etc?

• Is it busier/quieter? (I remember people saying December/January are busy but how is November?

• What’s the international/domestic tourists like? Is it more skewed than February and March?

• Anything else that you feel is different between November and February?

Also any suggestions for things to do other than the beach during this time, we love exploring new things for day trips or 1-night stays?

Thanks :)
