Victoria Weather in March

March weather in Victoria

March feels warm and sticky, with little change between daytime and night. The high is 29°C and the low is 28°C, while humidity sits at 78%. Rain falls on 20 days, though showers don't necessarily last all day. You'll get about six hours of sun daily.

This suits a flexible city visit: browse the Sir Selwyn Selwyn-Clarke Market between showers, then see the Clock Tower or the National Museum. For a beach day, keep plans loose. Rain can interrupt time by the water, and wet paths make a long walk less appealing. June to August is a better bet for drier outdoor days.

Events and the feel of the city

March doesn't have a major fixed festival in Victoria. International Women's Day falls on March 8, but it isn't a public holiday in Seychelles. You can still enjoy the city's everyday rhythm: stop for grilled fish or a ladob dessert, a local sweet dish made with fruit or roots.

If you hate crowds, March may suit you better than the busier June-to-August travel season. Visitor numbers and prices are generally lower, though the trade-off is frequent rain. April is wetter still, so March can be a useful shoulder-season choice.

Getting around Victoria in March

Keep a market visit near the top of your list. The covered stalls at Sir Selwyn Selwyn-Clarke Market make a handy stop when a shower passes, and you can pick up fresh fruit or local spices.

Travelling with kids? Pair the market with the small Natural History Museum nearby, rather than planning a long outdoor outing. Its exhibits give you a quick introduction to Seychelles' wildlife and islands without relying on clear skies.
