What is the best time of year to sail the Suez Canal to the Maldives and Bali? Hello I want to sail to Bali, from the Suez Canal, across the Red Sea on the Maldives, Sri Lanka and Bali.
All relevant information will be gratefully received Thank you.
Get Jimmy Cornell World Cruising routes. It will tell you the best time to go, but here it is in some way:
Red Sea to Sri Lanka from May to June, October-Novemember.
You know you're going against the wind!
This route has been sailed for 2,000 years, first by Arab traders in their dhows and Europeans and their rigged ship, using the seasonal monsoon runoff or wind.
It is therefore the key to an internet search ..... looking south-west to north-east monsoons!
