The permitted area, in practice

The day's playground: Mahé’s north-east coast and the Sainte-Anne marine park, granite waters sailable all year round, within the boundary drawn in the contract by the operator. Sky-wise: two gentle monsoons — south-east trades May to October, north-westerlies in the austral summer — with no cyclone season — schedule around the morning sea.

When to go in Mahé

The season stretches from April to May and October to November, the turn of the monsoons giving the smoothest water. Outside peak season, rates ease a little and the pontoons breathe.
