Top 7 Places to See While You Are in Madagascar

Fragment of Africa posed in the Indian Ocean, the island continent brings extraordinary natural wealth. The north is known for its diversity of landscapes, national parks, wildlife, islands, beaches and seabed. Here are the top 7 places to see while you are in Madagascar.
At the northern tip of the island is Diego Suarez the city spread out around a beautiful bay. The straight avenues of the old center recall the French colonial presence. The surroundings are beautiful: the site of fielding a succession of beautiful beaches and wild berries completely bathed by the clear waters. This is an opportunity to make a great hiking or picnicking along the coast, in an atmosphere of the end of the world.

Mounting Park Amber

A paradise for naturalists and hikers. In the thick rainforest covering a volcanic massif, one has the impression of entering a setting worthy of Jurassic Park: waterfalls, giant ferns, palms, orchids, lakes… And of course, the Malagasy fauna make a spectacle: you will never see as many chameleon species in this national park, famous for its biodiversity. We identify ten species, including micra, the world’s smallest, barely the size of a fingernail. You will get to know all kinds of lemurs, geckos and even uroplatus a lizard who has an amazing mimicry of tree bark. Discover all the treasures in the company of a naturalist guide. In the evening, get comfortable at Nature Lodge, near the park, with beautiful bungalows built with local materials.

The Amber Mountain Park

It is in this massive that we admire the Tsingy, these incredible limestone formations sharp as knives drawn skyward. This is an ancient coral reef, carved by erosion. We approach via hiking trails and footbridges appointed over canyons. The highlight of the tour: a picnic on one of the lookouts overcoming this strange stone forest. Erosion has also shaped huge underground caves, the company explore a guide. Side fauna: lemurs (including the curious lepilemurs, living in tree trunks), bats, chameleons and birds.

The red Tsingy

Still tsingy, but this time the decor and color change completely. Here, it is like in Cappadocia or Colorado… The Red Tsingy, superb concretions of sand, coral and laterite, form a spectacular geological together, where the red-ocher color is dominant. We discover a furnished perspective, or by following the bed of a river walk.

Islands: Nosy Be, Nosy Komba Nosy and Tanikely

Lazing in the shade of coconut palms on white sand beaches, lobster and fish taste, shopping at craft stores or in colorful markets, visit fishing villages… This is the enticing program that awaits you at Nosy Be the pearl of Madagascar, north-west of the country, renowned for its excellent hotel infrastructure. From here, one can embark on Nosy Komba, lush island where excellent accommodations are located, including the Coco Komba in a sandy cove, the cozy bungalows have a beautiful sea view. Nosy Komba, it is easy to reach Nosy Tanikely during a boat trip the day: this tiny island surrounded by beaches lapped by turquoise waters, is a paradise for diving and snorkeling. Several diving centers offer a baptism (initiation) or exploration outputs for those with a diving certificate. It is enough to climb to the lighthouse at the top of the island, to enjoy a panorama worthy of a postcard.
