Two thunderstorms with heavy rain during our 10 days on the ground but these were both after sunset.

Low cloud on the horizon every evening so no sunset over the sea.

Completely still except for one windy afternoon towards the end which happened to coincide with our ferry from Praslin back to Mahé. Steady stomach required. (If I ever return it'll be to yacht charter during the windier season which, I think, is just beginning.)

Otherwise plenty of beach time in hot, hot sun.
If you're snorkeling I highly recommend a rash vest and factor 30+ on the backs of your knees!
