Seycheles
Seychelles - the pearl of the Indian Ocean and one of the most beautiful places in the world. The beautiful sandy beaches are dotted with unique granite rocks, where the backdrop is dominated by magnificent coconut palms. There are also several national parks, both on land and at sea. Here you can meet the giant tortoise, and in the clear water with visibility of up to 25 metres you can see a whole different world - colourful fish of different sizes, beautiful coral reefs full of life.
For sailors in particular, the Seychelles has a lot to offer - moderate winds and low waves are ideal conditions for sailing. The advantage is that you can plan a One Way Cruise here, so you can visit much more in the time you are at sea than if you had to return to your home marina.
Popular sailing areas in the Seychelles are around the islands of Mahé, Praslin and La Digue.
Another advantage for yachting is that the islands are located outside of tropical storm and hurricane prone areas. Only the monsoons change here, which you can adapt to by using the windward and leeward bays. Seafood lovers can prepare their fresh catch daily on the grill, which is on every boat here.
The climate in the Seychelles is tropical and influenced by the ocean. The average temperatures here are constant throughout the year, with rain showers more frequent in the winter season, while the summer months are mostly dry.
