Kitesurfing in Seychelles

Picture this: you’re gliding over crystal-clear water, surrounded by white-sand beaches and lush, tropical greenery. Welcome to Seychelles, a kitesurfer’s dream come true! This archipelago of 115 islands, located in the Indian Ocean, is more famous for honeymooners and giant tortoises, but it’s also a prime spot for kitesurfing if you’re looking for a wind-powered adventure in paradise.

The best time to kitesurf in Seychelles is during the trade wind seasons. From May to October, the southeast trade winds blow between 15-25 knots, providing consistent conditions for a great session. The second, lighter trade wind season runs from November to March, but beware—this time of year can be a little calmer and occasionally interrupted by rain (though it’s still warm enough to laugh about it). Oh, and did I mention it’s usually a balmy 27°C year-round? Just try not to get too distracted by the scenery.

So, if you’re ready to trade crowded beaches for secluded paradise and swap wetsuits for board shorts, Seychelles is waiting! Just don’t blame me if you never want to leave.
