Climate varies on these sizeable islands, but in general travel between April and October is recommended. This way you can avoid the sweltering tropical heat while experiencing little rainfall. Baby lemurs can be seen from October onwards, a good month for a hot and relatively dry beach holiday. Annual cyclones occur between January and March
