Seychelles is truly a paradise in the world, where you can enjoy excellent weather all year round. However, there can be slight changes between different seasons on these islands. The islands are located at a sufficiently large distance from the cyclones that bring cold so even chilly weathers in the Seychelles are quite rare. Air temperature here varies from 25°C to 35°C and the average water temperature is about 27-28°C. The climate on the islands is tropical. However, since the territory is located in the midst of the ocean, all the aggressive features of a tropical climate are greatly relaxed. Every year on the islands, there is experienced both a dry season and a wet season. It all depends on the direction of the wind and the amount of precipitation that the air masses bring.

With the onset of September, the air temperature gradually rises and already in the middle of the month reaches a height of 29°C. Water remains warmed up to 27°C. Southeast air masses are gradually replaced by north-western air masses. There are only a few rainy days in September but with the onset of October, there are short rains almost every day. In November however, the wet season manifests itself in all its glory. Humidity gradually increases, reaching 80 and 90%. The temperature of water and air during this period are practically in the same range. Most of the time, the ocean is calm but there is a sharp changeability. Please note that there are unexpectedly huge waves from time to time that should be taken into account when having a vacation at this time of year.
Top periods for vacation in Seychelles
Due to the fact that the Seychelles are in close proximity to the equator, the tropical climate prevails here thereby causing the distinct characteristics of winter and summer to be completely absent. Although, in view of the fact that there is a dry and humid season in the country (with air humidity parameters up to 100%), it is still worthwhile to plan the time of your visit to the islands in advance. The lowest tourist season falls between November and March because it rains almost every day and it is also during this period that the humidity on the islands rises. The swimming season in the Seychelles never ends since the minimum water temperature reaches 26°C, and the maximum values reach 32°C. To avoid storms and high waves with rain, it is best to visit the Seychelles for a beach holiday during the period of April through to the end of May. Beach vacation will also be beautiful in summer. However, the ocean is quite unpredictable during this period and the calm sea surface can immediately change to big waves. It should be noted that due to the high temperature of water and air which are often on the same index, swimming does not bring tourists the proper pleasure.

Despite the fact that there are very few historical and architectural monuments on the territory of the Seychelles, sightseeing tours are equally popular in this area. The fact is that the most vivid sights were created by nature itself and most of them will not be met by tourist anywhere else in the world. It is worth noting that for this type of leisure, choosing the time of travel should only be guided by your own preferences. If you find it hard to cope with high humidity, it is best to go on excursions in spring or in summer. In general, the tourist season in the Seychelles lasts all year round. Seychelles are famous for their delightful and unusual animal world. Some of the tourists visit the State just to watch sea turtles. From November to the end of March, they (sea turtles) go ashore to lay eggs in the sand. Many of the breeds of turtles are found only in the Seychelles.

Seychelles is often chosen by couples for a wedding ceremony and also to spend a delightful honeymoon in the vastness of the magnificent nature. It is worth noting that marriages concluded in the Seychelles are considered valid in many countries around the world. The most popular season for marriages is at the end of May and until the middle of autumn. Accordingly, all organizational and related services will be quite expensive. At other times of the year, you can save a lot on the ceremony and honeymoon. Keep in mind also for the outpour of sudden rains. A fairly large influx of tourists is observed during the New Year and Christmas holidays. Also, it is worth visiting the festival of Creole culture which falls at the end of October. There is also a fishing tour which is often held in summer in the open sea and an International Carnival in April.
