premium vacationdivinghoneymoon
Desroches is located far from the main granite islands and requires an internal flight. People come here not for sightseeing, but for the beach, cycling, fishing, and diving.
Remoteness increases the requirements for insurance, luggage, and connecting plans. Meals and activities depend almost entirely on the resort chosen.
Seasonality
The climate is tropical, warm and humid year-round. The northwest season is typically warmer and more humid, while the southeast trade winds bring drier, windier weather. Brief showers are possible in any month, and the sea behaves differently on each side of the island.
