A Brief Summary
With some of the most picturesque and photographed beaches in the world, and a byword for luxurious escapes, the Seychelles are a true tropical island paradise. May is the sunniest month of the year in the Seychelles and the perfect time of year to experience these incredible islands, with their lush green hilly interiors, brilliantly blue warm waters, rare wildlife, spectacular flora, wonderful cuisine and world-leading hotels. If you’re on a tight budget, this isn’t the island chain for you, but if it’s a really special ocassion, or you want to empty a little from your virtual wallet, May in the Seychelles is just about as good as it gets

About the Weather
Very warm, mostly sunny and humid year-round. With no dry season and appreciable rain in all months, the Seychelles have a tropical rainforest climate. The Dec – Feb period is the wettest across the islands, with May being the sunniest month and Jul the driest on average. Sunshine levels are only supressed in the wettest months of Dec to Feb. Tropical storms do not affect the islands directly, given their near-equatorial position.
