Is there seaweed at beaches right now?

Seaweed (Sargassum) varies by season and coast:

**May-September (Southeast Monsoon):** More seaweed accumulates on east/southeast coast beaches (Anse Royale, some parts of Praslin east coast)

**November-March (Northwest Monsoon):** Seaweed may affect some west coast beaches

**Year-round clearest beaches:** - Beau Vallon (Mahé) - usually clear - Anse Lazio (Praslin) - usually excellent - Anse Severe (La Digue) - generally clear

Beach conditions change daily. Check with your hotel or locals for current conditions at specific beaches.
