Best Time for Odisha: Temples, Puri & Chilika

Last updated: 2026-09-23

Preferred months for this journey: November, December, January, February. Check the seasonal notes before choosing your dates.

Migratory birds raft Chilika by the hundred thousand, Irrawaddy dolphins surface off Satapada, and the December Konark festival dances against the Sun Temple.
Puri's Rath Yatra — the original juggernaut — draws a million pilgrims hauling the chariots; extraordinary, and best planned for deliberately.
