GOA in August

We're staying in India between 1-15 August and thinking of flying to Goa for a few days to get a nice tan but aren't sure if it makes any sense in the monsoon season. Or is it better to stay in the north and forget about Goa?
Thanks for your help

Depends on the weather gods can be great (but no swimming) and can be pathetic. Its very devoid of tourists, yay..

It'll probably be wet, the monsoon doesn't usually finish until September.

Services in Goa can be a touch variable in the monsoon.

'A touch variable' meaning roads can wash out and not get repaired for days, electricity tends not to be reliable and you can watch the pretty flashes as the street lights explode...

Oh yes, and loads of places are shut...

Stuff in the big cities in India doesn't work properly in the Monsoon
