Best Time to Visit Indian Ocean Islands
The best time to visit Indian Ocean islands depends on the island, the coast and the activity. A single month cannot cover Mauritius, Reunion Island, Seychelles, Madagascar, Mayotte and Comoros with equal accuracy.
Indian Ocean Itinerary for Mauritius, Reunion and Seychelles
An Indian Ocean itinerary should be built around fewer moves and stronger contrasts. The mistake is trying to collect islands. The better approach is to choose one clear theme: easy lagoon, hiking and volcano, beach archipelago, wildlife journey or a two-island combination.
Mauritius trip cost and Indian Ocean budget
An Indian Ocean trip budget depends on the island, the season, the flight, the accommodation style and the activities. Mauritius, Reunion Island, Madagascar, Seychelles, Mayotte and Comoros do not work like interchangeable beach products.
Seychelles island hopping and Indian Ocean routes
Combining two Indian Ocean islands can make a trip richer: volcano and lagoon, hiking and beach, Creole culture and slow island life. But a bad island-hopping plan only adds flights, fatigue and cost.
