For unparalleled luxury and seclusion, consider Seychelles' private islands. These islands, including Cousine, Denis, and North Island (a favorite of Prince William and Kate), offer lavish villas, private pools, and attentive butlers, creating a true island paradise.
Seychelles' remote outer archipelago is a haven of pristine coral islands with minimal human presence. The world-class diving opportunities and solitude make it a remarkable destination. Four Seasons Desroches Island, located 230km from Mahé, is an excellent choice for an intimate escape and is often regarded as one of the finest honeymoon destinations in Africa.
WHEN TO GO?
The Seychelles is best enjoyed during the tranquil periods of April to May or October to November, sandwiched between the island's two annual trade winds. The northwest trade wind prevails from November to March, while the southeast wind dominates from May to September. These winds can bring seaweed to specific beaches, so it's wise to choose your hotel locations thoughtfully based on the time of year.
Seychelles maintains a consistently pleasant temperature of around 30°C (86°F) throughout the year, accompanied by a mix of sunshine and occasional tropical showers. Refreshing sea breezes help alleviate the humidity. Nevertheless, Seychelles' location, just seven degrees south of the Equator and surrounded by the vast Indian Ocean, challenges weather prediction and online forecasts.
