Seychelles Holidays
Pillow-soft sands and topaz waters, set against a backdrop of rolling green hills – is this the stuff of dreams? Nope: it’s just your average day in the Seychelles. Scattered across the Indian Ocean to the north-east of Madagascar, the Seychelles make up the oldest island chain in the world. Ancient granite boulders and coco de mer trees decorate picturesque beaches, surrounded by jungle and mountain forests. Mahe, Praslin and La Digue, the largest of the 115 islands, are home to giant tortoises and myriad bird life. Dive in and explore the turquoise waters that team with life, or ask your Expert to time your stay with turtle nesting season (September to March).

When to Go to the Seychelles
Weather in the Seychelles are split into three different seasons; northwest trade winds from November to March, southwest trade winds from April to October, and the transition seasons in April and May, and October and November. With the trade winds bring hot and humid weather so if you’d refer respite from the heat, the tradition months are the best time to visit. The busiest times to visit the Seychelles are in December and January and July and August.
