Seychelles Information

The Seychelles are different from most holiday destinations around the world due to its makeup of a wide range of islands. Every island in the Seychelles archipelago is unique. These islands can be divided into two separate groups – the central group of islands and the outer group of islands. For instance, Mahe Island which falls in the category of central group is made out of granite. On the other hand, the outer islands are formed through coral accretion. They are usually flat and small, lying just a few metres above the sea level. Apart from Mahe, the islands which attract the most number of visitors each year are Praslin and La Digue. The weather stays pleasant almost all throughout the year, making it a must to experience the beauty of more than one island in your Seychelles trip. Almost all the Seychelles vacation packages cover the main islands mentioned above, while you can take a helicopter exploration trip to the smaller islands.

	Seychelles International Airport Weather Forecast, Seychelles

The climate of Seychelles is not extreme. The maximum temperature seldom goes above 35°C and the minimum temperature rarely dips below 24°C. However, the existence of the cyclone belt makes the rainy season sometimes a little harsh. The rain in the month of January and February proves rejuvenating for the streams, rivers, and the foliage of the islands. The period between May and September marks the Seychelles winter (which is warm and comfortable). This period is an excellent time to visit though the weather remains quite pleasant all throughout the year. The conditions for diving, snorkeling and swimming are at their best during these months. The cooler, windier conditions are also ideal for activities like sailing.
