When Should You Visit Seychelles?
Holidays and business in Seychelles can be really fun and fulfilling if you go there in the right weather. In November to April the islands experience monsoon rain. Besides rain, the weather is humid and hot. So, unless you are a summer fan you shouldn’t visit Seychelles this season. When May starts, the weather begins to cool down. Till September the weather is moderate and rain decreases, but the direction of the wind makes the seas rough. If you visit in this weather, you’ll have to be more careful on the beaches.
