💰 How far does your money go?
An aperitivo in Milan now costs €9-10. The Seychelles are not cheap, but local food is: a Creole takeaway lunch box of fish curry and rice costs €5-7, a bottle of SeyBrew beer from a shop about €2.50 and a ride on the public bus around the island less than €1. Hotel restaurants cost much more, so eat where the locals eat.
☀️ The Weather
December and January are summer in the Seychelles. Expect highs of about 30°C, warm nights around 25°C and a sea at 28-29°C. This is the wetter season, with short, heavy tropical showers and some humid, cloudy days, but there is plenty of sun in between.
