Field notes
Tropical equatorial maritime — moderated by the Indian Ocean into one of the more stable tropical climates on this list (annual variance 26–28°C). The seasonal structure is monsoonal: the NW monsoon (December–February) brings heavy daily rainfall and rough seas; the SE monsoon (May–September) is the dry-season postcard window with calmer seas, bright sun, and slightly cooler temperatures. Sea-water temperatures stay swimmable year-round (26–29°C). Cyclones are rare (Seychelles sits north of the main Indian-Ocean cyclone tracks).
