उत्तर
Kanyakumari experiences an equable climate because it is surrounded by the sea on three sides - the Bay of Bengal, the Arabian Sea, and the Indian Ocean. The presence of the sea moderates the temperature throughout the year. The sea breeze and land breeze help in maintaining a moderate temperature, preventing extreme heat or cold.
