What kind of clothes will I need?

If you visit in October and November this time temperature average 28 to 35 (needs spacing!) its hot. December and January the early mornings and late evenings can be cool, so a sweater and some warm yoga clothes for the start of your practice will come in handy. As soon as the sun comes up the temperature averages 28 to 30 degrees and you can lie in the sun all day. The Goans are used to Western tourists and you do not need to cover your shoulders and arms unless visiting churches or temples.
