    Geographical influences

    The Indian Ocean is home to a number of beautiful and exotic islands including the Maldives, Sri Lanka and the Seychelles. All of the islands are perfect for a classic beach holiday but if you’re looking for a mix of sand and tropical forests, head to the Seychelles. Here, you’ll experience the island’s romantic atmosphere and enjoy some snorkelling in the sea. For a cultural trip, Sri Lanka is perfect. Explore its colonial buildings and walk through plantations with beautiful gardens and epic scenery.

    The water is very warm and ideal for swimming during the warmest time of the day. Temperatures will reach as high as 31°C, which means you need to keep topping up your sunscreen and drink plenty of water to stay hydrated.
