What you gain in November
- ↑NE monsoon arrives: seas calm, visibility improving week by week to 20–25m by month end
- ↑Prices still 20–25% below peak dry season — good value for genuine dry season quality
- ↑Resort demand picking up: good availability without the peak-season competition
What you sacrifice
- ↓143mm of rain: still meaningful rainfall in early November before dry season fully establishes
- ↓Some weeks of mixed conditions as the monsoon transition plays out
- ↓Prices climbing as demand returns for the Christmas season ahead
