    In October the wind tends to be a bit stronger and more consistent, usually around 15 20 km/h, while February winds are gentler, closer to 10 12 km/h. If you’re after more lift and longer flights, October is usually the safer bet. For a relaxed weekend you could still do a nice launch in February, just expect shorter flights. If you’re staying nearby, the Sterling Stolen Heaven Lonavala is a convenient base with good reviews.
