2015-16 South-West Indian Ocean cyclone season

The 2015–16 South-West Indian Ocean cyclone season is an event in the annual cycle of tropical cyclone formation. It began on 15 November 2015, and will end on 30 April 2016, with the exception for Mauritius and the Seychelles, for which it will end on 15 May 2016. These dates conventionally delimit the period of each year when most tropical cyclones form in the region.

Tropical cyclones in this basin are monitored by the Regional Specialised Meteorological Centre in Réunion.
