In search of an ideal vacation spot, many tourists choose the Seychelles, dreaming of a quick return to this corner of peace and tranquility.
Paradise Seychelles in popularity and beauty can compete only with the Maldives. Both archipelagos are located in the Indian Ocean, but there are still differences between them, both in nature and in the infrastructure of the resorts. The convenient location of the Seychelles guarantees travelers an eternal summer for almost a whole year. The archipelago is protected from cyclones, so there are no heavy rains and floods on the islands. Storms in the Indian Ocean do not reach the azure lagoons of the Seychelles, so here you can enjoy a light breeze, crystal clear waters and enjoy snorkeling and deep diving without restrictions.
As a separate state, Seychelles was formed recently, so almost all national holidays and many festivals are associated with the religious commitment of the inhabitants of the archipelago. The proximity to the equator and the influence of monsoons create a dry climate in the resort from May to October, which gives way to a wet season from November to April.
Winter
Since December, rest in the Seychelles may be accompanied by light rainfall in the evening. Moreover, the water quickly evaporates and after a few hours does not leave any trace of the rain. Humidity is quite high and the air temperature does not drop below 30 degrees. After sunset, the water in the sea becomes even warmer than the air and stays at around 28 degrees. You can escape the heat of the day in the jungle, spa or shopping malls. But in the morning you can safely plan excursions.
In December, birds fly to the islands to winter, so winter rest will be accompanied by melodic trills of birds in the morning. In January-February, temperatures reach their maximum, which can make it difficult for children and elderly people who do not tolerate heat well. However, even in the low tourist season, holidays in the Seychelles will be more favorable than in popular Thailand during the rainy season.
Spring
Since March, the climate on the islands becomes drier. Clear days delight tourists more and more often, and the air is cooled by changing the direction of the blowing winds. Humidity drops and stays in the region of 75-80%. In the off-season, holidays in the Seychelles turn into a fairy tale thanks to the wintering birds and the abundant flowering of tropical vegetation after the rainy season.
If tourists take an excursion to the jungle during this period, they will be satisfied with their trip. From April to May, the air and water temperatures equalize to 28-30 degrees, while the humidity drops noticeably, making it easier for tourists to be outside during the daytime. Daylight hours during this period reach 8 hours.
Summer
From June in the ocean, storms begin to rage, reaching 6 points. Therefore, the entire east coast attracts surfers. The West Bank still delights tourists with its calmness and absence of waves. The air temperature drops by several degrees, bringing the long-awaited coolness to tourists during the daytime.
From July daylight hours decrease by an hour, but the weather becomes even clearer. Humidity drops, and rest is easily tolerated even by residents of the northern part of Russia. It is in the middle and the end of summer that the peak of the tourist season begins, so it will be difficult to find last-minute deals to the Seychelles during this period.
Fall
With the beginning of autumn, the flow of tourists decreases, and the resorts can no longer be called overcrowded. The off-season comes, but the air and water temperatures are kept at a pleasant 28 degrees. Humidity and precipitation increase slightly. Since October, nature has endowed tourists with fruits and flowering gardens, and it rains for up to 9 days in the entire month. This period also attracts travelers with the colorful Creole Festival, which brings together virtuosos of brush, dance and music from all over the world. Since November, the Seychelles have experienced a humid climate. Humidity rises and the air temperature rises to 30-35 degrees.
