Unspoiled, timeless, unhurried and pristine – the 115 granitic and coralline islands of the Seychelles archipelago lie just south of the equator – 1000 miles off the east coast of Africa. They are blessed with a pleasant tropical climate all year round with a temperature which seldom drops below 24° or rises above 33° celsius.

The small variance in weather is dictated by the direction of the prevailing tradewinds. When the south-east tradewinds blow between the months of May to September, the weather is usually drier and slightly cooler but with livelier seas, particularly on south-east coastlines, whilst during the north-west tradewinds between October and March, the weather is warm and humid, but the sea can be rougher on the north and west sides of the islands. Inevitably, short-lived tropical showers may fall at any time – but as a general rule, December to February tend to bring the life-giving raixsns, teasing the foliage into rainbows of colour. The periods of calm in April, May and October, produce warm and wind-free conditions, particularly ideal for snorkelling and diving.

The spectacular granitic islands (which largely make up the Inner Islands group) are easily recognisable by their unique sculptured granite boulders which run alongside stunning white sand beaches (see adjacent picture). They lie clustered around the main island of Mahé, and the second largest island, Praslin – home to the wondrous Vallée de Mai – where the legendary coco-de-mer grows on ancient palm trees. In complete contrast, the far-flung Outer Islands consist mainly of sparkling sand cays and remote coral atolls.

Beyond the breathtaking beaches, Seychelles is also famed for its turtles, corals and amazing birdlife. Many of the islands remain sanctuaries for rare and exotic flora and fauna – and it is this geographical diversity which makes island hopping extremely popular.
