Seychelles yacht charters

The Seychelles are made up of 115 islands, only 33 of which are  inhabited. Located south of the equator in the western Indian Ocean, the  Seychelles Islands are mostly coral, or volcanic in origin. Yacht  charter bases in the Seychelles are located on two major islands: Mahe  and Praslin. Mahe is the principal island of the archipelago, famous for  its large coconut palms and cinnamon plantations. It is also well known  for its fantastic views of the other islands.

Climate in Seychelles

Seychelles has two seasons: the cool southeast monsoon (May -  September), and the hot northwest monsoon (October-April). During the  cool season, breezes prevail, skies can be partly cloudy, temperatures  are lower, and the sea is less inviting for diving or snorkeling. The  hot northwest monsoon brings crystal waters, blue skies, along with heat  and occasional but serious rainstorms. The months of November and April  are optimal, with the best of both to offer. The busy high seasons fall  from July to August, and Christmas to New Year's.

Seychelles sailing conditions

Seychelles yacht rentals are mostly concentrated in the inner  islands of Praslin and La Digue, clustered around the main island and  offering short line of sight passages. The Seychelles have a tropical  climate with the dry season from April to October. This is the best time  for a sailing vacation in the Seychelles, with predictable winds around  the inner islands. Winds generally range from 6 – 20 knots (5 – 23 mph)  and temperatures range from 80 – 86 F (28 to 30 C). During the north or  south monsoon season, winds can be stronger, but it is almost never  dangerous as this region is located outside of the so-called cyclone and  storm zone. Yachting in the Seychelles, with its moderate climate and  fair winds, is perfect for experienced sailors or skippered charters.  With numerous magnificent coves, you can enjoy peaceful sailing in short  distances. Be aware of tidal waters that may range here up to 5 feet.

A sailing vacation in the Seychelles could be considered one of the  most desired charter destinations in the world. This is one of the few  places that can boast nature with unique flora and fauna, pristine pink  sand beaches, beautiful clear waters, giant tortoises, rare birds, and  two UNESCO World Heritage sites. All this makes a Seychelles yacht  charter an unforgettable life experience.

Known as the Galapagos of the Indian  Ocean, the islands were never inhabited before European colonization. As  a transit point for trade between Africa and Asia, the islands were  used be Arab navigators on their voyages and by pirates as well - only  until the French took their "Stone of Possession" and named the islands  after Jean Moreau de Seychelles in 1756. Britain and France fought over  the islands through the late 18th to early 19th centuries, with Britain  gaining its control in 1814. But in 1976 the Seychelles declared its  independence from Britain. And now renting a boat in Seychelles you will  see that people from different origins live together with inspiring  degree of harmony in diversity.

Places of interest

The main yacht charter base is located in Mahe -  archipelago's largest and most developed island. It is home to 90% of  the country's population with amazing ethnic diversity-from descendants  of European colonists and African slaves to later settlers from Arabia,  India and China. Mahe is the main transport hub for transfers to other  islands in the archipelago providing a good starting point for the yacht  charter.

Victoria, the capital and the commercial center of Seychelles and a  welcoming harbor with all types of dock, is only 5 miles south from the  International airport. Its National Botanical gardens are just on the  outskirts of town. While enjoying the most important local species,  including the rare Coco de Mer, watch out for the native Aldabra  tortoises (some over 150 years old) and the flying foxes roosting in the  palm trees. There is also the Spice garden to visit where vanilla  cinnamon, nutmeg and other endemic plants are grown.

Beau Vallon, among 65 stunning beaches to choose, is Mahe's most  popular yacht charter destinations. With surfing from September to  April, safe swimming year-round, it is the only beach where motorized  water sports are allowed. With a lifeguard on duty and no strong  currents, rocks or corals, it is safe for everyone.

The second largest island and yacht charter base in Seychelles is Praslin .  It is much quieter than Mahe. Historically known as pirates'  hideaway, Praslin has become the Vallee de Mai Unesco World Heritage  site for its famous Coco de Mer, the world's heaviest nut, grown in the  wild.

La Digue is the fourth largest inhabited island. With no natural  harbor the island is well shielded by its encircled coral reef with  masses of impressive pink granite boulders. With almost no motor  traffic, where everyone here gets around on foot or pedal bicycle, La  Digue will take you back in time. For those seeking an unpretentious  laid-back beach lifestyle, this is your island.

Private islands

Largely uninhabited, there is a handful of private islands  (accessible mostly by boats) with nothing but a single resort- that will  blow your mind (and possibly your budget) away.

Sail The Seychelles

• Sailing Conditions

Scattered like exquisite jewels across the Indian Ocean east of Africa, the Seychelles island group is one of the world’s great charter boat sailing destinations.

For the sailboat charterer, the Seychelles combine tropical island getaway with a natural world encounter that is undoubtedly second to none. The island culture and heritage adds another dimension. The Seychelles have historically been a maritime crossroads in trade between Africa and Asia, with French and British colonial influences in evidence. 

The Seychelles cover some 1.4m km2 between 4° and 10° south of the Equator. Closest to Africa are the coral atolls of the Outer Group.  Your charter holiday however will take place in and around the 41 ancient granite islands that make up the Inner Group. Once the preserve of Arab traders, this archipelago is now a popular holiday destination particularly with European and South African travellers.  

Easier to get to than you may think, the exotic paradise of the Seychelles ticks all the boxes for a laid-back tropical island holiday to remember.

Arrive in the largest island Mahé for your first taste of Indian Ocean island living. Board your charter boat at Eden Island there on Mahé, or spend time in the settlement of Victoria before transfering by ferry to the nearby island of Praslin, where there there are also full charter base facilities. The fast ferry takes just one hour between these islands and from either port it's just a short sail in any direction to numerous wonderful places. It is also possible to start your charter at one base and end it in the other, providing extra time to explore these islands. 

Charter in the Seychelles and among other natural delights watch turtles swimming in the warm turquoise waters. Take time ashore to hike through lush green jungles. Back on board your own luxurious all-in-one local transport and accommodation, go snorkelling among stunning coral reefs, or simply take time out and relax. Pack lots of fun and excitement into every minute of your trip, regardless of the time of year you visit.   

Whatever you do in the Seychelles, enjoy being in one of nature's finest remaining locales, away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

The weather at the Seychelles is always warm and without extremes. It is one of those tropical havens where the temperature seldom drops below 24°C or rises above 32°C. All but the most remote southern islands in the group lie comfortably outside the cyclone belt. The islands provide a year-round destination for sun worshippers and sailors venturing to explore the fabulous Indan Ocean waters that surround them.

During the north-west trade winds that visit between November and April the sea is generally calm and the weather warm and humid, with average winds of 8-12 knots. In January and February the islands receive their life-giving rains that rejuvenate the waterways while teasing the vibrant foliage into every colour of the rainbow. Between May and October winds are from the south-east at 10-20 knots, with drier, slightly cooler weather and livelier seas.

There is such a wide variety of places to go and sheltered anchorages whichever way the wind is blowing, that anytime is a fine time to visit the Seychelles  .
