Seychelles in April

Light winds and inviting seas

The short answer

April is one of the best months to visit Seychelles.

April is a transition between the two main monsoon patterns, often bringing light, variable winds and attractive sea conditions. It can feel particularly hot, and afternoon showers are still possible.
