Monsoon season sets in from July and lasts till September. It brings down the temperature and is a relief from the extreme heat. However, it is still not a good time to visit beaches because of the danger of high tides. Even taking a walk on the beach becomes uncomfortable because of unpredictable rains and high humidity. During the rains, you can take a walk around the neighbourhoods near the beaches and enjoy the city instead. But since water sports and beaches cannot be experienced during monsoon, people avoid visiting Digha during monsoon.
