How to Get  to Banda

When to Come

The best times to visit Banda are March through May and September through December. The weather tends to be drier and the wind does not blow as strongly during these seasons, making getting to and from Banda, as well as getting around and doing activities once you’re here, easier and more enjoyable. Other months of the year (January-February and June-August) tend to be a bit windy and wavy, with mixed sunny and rainy weather.
