Ten-year averages for this calendar month. A rainy day is one with at least 1 mm of rain, as a weather station counts it. The model these figures come from drizzles more than a rain gauge, the more so the warmer the month, so its days count from 2 mm, rising to 5 mm in the hottest.

Weather read at the city, 38 km from the airport (VTZ): ten years of ERA5 and ERA5-Land reanalysis, through Open-Meteo's open data.

How busy it gets

March: about usual. Busiest in February and December; quietest in April.

Public holidays in March

Holidays crowd a place out and push fares up around them; they count toward the crowd score above.

Each line is a threshold over the ten-year figures above, not advice from anywhere else.

Before you go

Type C and D plugs at 230 V. Drives on the left. The currency is the Indian rupee. UK Foreign Office: avoid all travel to parts. Everything for India: cost of living, languages, emergency numbers and health.

On arrival in Visakhapatnam: the apps, paying, getting around, tipping and the emergency numbers.
