The winters (June to August) are mild to warm, the daytime temperatures on average are over 20°C, and the probability of rain is low. The nights are also warm and often humid.
Swimming is good in the Indian Ocean throughout the year.
For some people the best time to visit is between autumn and spring when there's less humidity and temperatures are lower.
