Seychelles

  • Sunshine: 8 hours
  • Rainy days: 16

As the jewel of the Indian Ocean, Seychelles is on the bucket list for many travellers seeking pristine beaches and crystal-clear waters.

It can be a little wet at this time – and reasonably humid, but rainfall is certainly on the decrease with that trend continuing well into the summer.

With 115 islands across the country, there’s plenty of choice when it comes to finding places to stay and explore. This island nation is a melting pot of cultures, and you’ll have no difficulty immersing yourself in local life, especially if you visit the main islands of Mahé, La Digue and Praslin where you’ll experience the best of Creole and Seychellois culture.

As well as benefitting from a wide range of cultural influences, Seychelles is home to a widely biodiverse range of exotic wildlife, such as giant Aldabra tortoises and Warbler birds. If you really want to see the wildlife, you might fancy a stay on Bird Island, where you can stay in a private resort made up of 24 bungalows.
