Travel Tips

Best Time to Visit

The best time to visit Socotra Island is from October to April, when the weather is moderate and ideal for exploration and tourist activities. During these months, the climate is warm with a gentle sea breeze, allowing visitors to enjoy pristine beaches, swimming, snorkeling, and hiking through mountains and valleys.

During the monsoon season (May – September), strong winds and rough seas make it difficult to reach the island and limit tourist activities. Therefore, it is recommended to plan your trip in the winter and spring months for an ideal experience to fully explore Socotra’s natural beauty.
