What are the ocean conditions like at LiloDan?
Our prime beach-going months at LiloDan are June, July, August and September, with swimming pool-like conditions and 40-metre visibility. May and October are excellent beach-going months too, although on one or two days the wind is still changing. From December until April, the beaches on the other side of the island are better because of the changing winds. The beaches are accessible all year round.
