The weather in Mattancherry, and more broadly in Kochi, is typical of a tropical maritime climate, characterized by high humidity and relatively consistent temperatures throughout the year.

Winter (December to February): This is considered the most pleasant time to visit. Temperatures range from 24°C to 32°C (75°F to 90°F), and humidity levels are slightly lower than usual. The skies are generally clear, making it ideal for exploring the palace and its surroundings.

Summer (March to May): Temperatures rise during these months, often reaching between 26°C and 35°C (79°F to 95°F). Humidity is high, which can make it feel warmer. The intense heat and humidity might be uncomfortable for some visitors, but early morning or late afternoon visits can be more bearable.

Monsoon (June to September): The monsoon season brings heavy rainfall to the region, with July and August being the peak months. Rainfall is frequent and intense, which significantly increases humidity levels. While the lush greenery and rejuvenated landscapes can be quite picturesque, travellers should be prepared for wet conditions and possible disruptions.

Post-Monsoon (October to November): The weather begins to stabilize, with rainfall decreasing and temperatures ranging from 24°C to 32°C (75°F to 90°F). The humidity remains relatively high, but the overall conditions are more comfortable compared to the peak monsoon months.
