Best time to visit Rājkot

Rājkot is a city of two halves. January scores 93 and May scores 30 — a 63-point swing, which is the difference between a holiday and an endurance test. The month you pick matters more here than almost anywhere. Only 2 months come close to the top, which makes the timing narrow.

May is the warmest month at 40.1 °C and January the coolest at 28.6 °C — a 11.5 °C spread across the year. 298 days a year top 30 °C, more than a third of the calendar, so heat is the baseline here rather than a season.

There is a real wet season here. July to August carry the rain — up to 17 wet days in a month — while January, February, March, April, May, October, November and December drop as low as 0. That 17-day gap is the biggest single difference between a good month and a bad one in Rājkot, and it moves further than the temperature does.

Daylight runs from 10.8 hours in winter to 13.5 in summer, enough to notice on a sightseeing itinerary.

The three strongest months are January, December, February. The one to think twice about is May. Each month below has its own page with rainfall reliability, extremes, daylight and crowd levels.
