Summer (November to April): the hot and humid months, with temperatures averaging around 28°C to 33°C on the coast
Winter (May to October): cooler and drier months, with averages of 22°C to 28°C, good for hiking inland

Gatwick (LGW): 29 miles south of central London and the airport for the direct flights to Mauritius, reached by the Gatwick Express from Victoria
Heathrow (LHR): 14 miles west of London, where British Airways, Virgin Atlantic, Lufthansa, Aer Lingus and United Airlines are among the airlines

The other four are Stansted (STN), 42 miles north-east of London, Luton (LTN), 18 miles from central London, London City (LCY) and London Southend (SEN).
