In this tropical Paradise the temperature rarely falls below 24° C and rarely rises above 32° C Except for the most remote islands in the south, the Seychelles lie outside the cyclone belt, making it a year-round destination for sun-seekers and beach lovers.

During the northwestern monsoon winds between October and March, the sea is usually calm and the weather warm and humid. The average wind force is 8 to 12 knots.
