I’ve done a yacht trip around Praslin twice — once in late May and another time in November — and honestly, both were great but quite different. Around May, the water was incredibly clear and calm, perfect for snorkeling and anchoring near Anse Lazio. In November, though, there were occasional showers, but the sunsets were unreal and we had fewer tourists around. I booked through luxury yacht rental Praslin https://charterclick.sc/our-services/yacht-charter-praslin, and they gave a good rundown of the seasonal conditions before we confirmed. Their team mentioned that trade winds pick up from June to August, so if you want smoother cruising, aim for April–June or October–December. Weather aside, availability can also be tricky during holidays, so booking at least a couple of months ahead is smart.
