Indian Ocean Cruises Special Events
Colourful and lively festivals and celebrations take place throughout the year, so you may just get the chance to experience one of these special events during your cruise around the Indian Ocean:
Ganesh Chaturthi
Taking place in Mauritius in September, this Hindu celebration sees the locals carry statues of Ganesh- God of Wisdom- through the streets to the beach where they submerge his head in the water.
Fete Afrique
Held in May each year in the Seychelles, this festival has music, dancing and food to celebrate the country's African ties.
Independence Day
On July 26 each year in the Maldives, locals come together to celebrate the country's independence in 1965 with dancing, performances, food and partying throughout the day.
Indian Ocean Cruises Weather
Boasting a tropical climate throughout the year, you're bound to enjoy high temperatures and sunny days whichever time of the year you choose to travel. However, January and February tend to be the months which experience the most rainfall, so if you want to make sure that your cruise is as dry as possible, the best time to go on an Indian Ocean cruise is simply to avoid the beginning of the year.
