If you are looking at going to Majuli, you should plan it between Oct to feb, other wise its hot over there, plus monsoon time you should avoid.
Water level at Majuli rises during monsoon, many land areas at Majuli come under under water. If you are a tourist you should look at avoiding your travel to Majuli during monsoon time.
Over the years land area of Majuli is going down because of constant soil erosion. Government and other authorities are trying to save Majuli as a heritage. It had a area of 880 sq km at the beginning of 20th century, now its 352 sq. km as of 2014.
Do share your experience about Majuli, i will look foward to hear back from you in this regard.
Thanks, harish bali

After arriving on Majuli Island and visiting the local mask makers, we stopped by a funerary celebration where lots of locals had gathered. The people were celebrating the life of a woman who had passed away. There was lots of food there! There were two different types of rice beer: a purified one and one that was milky and cloudy. I could really taste the alcohol in both!
Even though there was a lot of food around us, we already had lunch scheduled, so we chose not to eat there even though the food looked amazing.
From the funerary celebration, we drove on to Majuli Town in the heart of the island. The town contains four streets. I could see lots of vendors and a commercial area. There, we headed to a small, local restaurant and ordered our thalis.
My thali consisted of ten different items, plus a chicken curry and a fish curry on the side. Included in the thali were rice, dal, small potatoes, eggplant, green beans, carrots with onions, banana meat, bamboo chutney, and lentil chutney. I started with the grated bamboo chutney, which was crunchy, refreshing, and a little spicy.
Then, I dug in with my hands went with the dal and rice and grabbed a couple of the tiny potatoes as well. My friends advised me to mix everything together instead of trying everything one by one. It was very refreshing! I loved how fresh and organic everything was.
I grabbed some of the fish next. I had to be careful because of the bones, but it was delicious! The green beans with peas were next. I loved the flavor in them. The curry was outstanding!
I followed that with the banana meat, which was really nice and almost tasted like bamboo! I mixed it with some rice really well with my fingers, grabbed a few tiny potatoes, and shoveled it into my mouth. It was so freaking good!
Next, I dug into some of the local chicken, which was nice and tender and was bathed in a rich, flavorful curry. It was so rich in spices and was phenomenal! The chicken may not have had a ton of meat on it, but the meat that was there was so buttery! The curry on it was good enough to drink! The meat practically fell off the bone!
Then I tried something that was super spicy, almost Thailand-level spiciness! The fish was really good, but I would have preferred a filet because there were so many bones!
After lunch, stopped at the Sri Sri Uttar Temple, which was established in 1673. We took our shoes off and walked around the grounds and saw the place where offerings are given to the gods.
There were paintings over the temple entrance that were over 300 years old. They included peacocks, Lord Rama, Hanuman, and Garuda. They were beautiful!
From there, we arrived back at the ferry at 2:30, but there was no space on it. We almost got stuck on the island for the night because they changed the final ferry time from 3:30 to 2:30, and then they weren’t sure our cars would fit onboard, but Rishi worked something out so we could leave. We were the last car allowed onboard and arrived just in the nick of time!
It was going to take 2 hours for us to get back to Jorhat. It took forever for the bikes, scooters, and cars to load. India is always super unpredictable. It makes every day there an adventure!
We finally made it onboard! It was a tight fit, but it was really magical to cross the river at sunset. After 2 hours, we arrived in Jorhat, but it took forever for them to unload the bikes and scooters. After an hour and 15 minutes, we finally unloaded the cars, but it was intense!
What a wild day in Majuli Island! If you liked this video, please give it a thumbs up, leave me a comment, and please subscribe to my channel so you don’t miss any of my upcoming travel/food content!
