Seychelles in August
Active island days and breezy beaches
The short answer
August is a reasonable month in Seychelles — with trade-offs.
August remains relatively dry, but southeast trade winds can be strong. Sheltered locations can still offer excellent beach time, while exposed shores may be less comfortable.
