How to get there
55 minutes from Antananarivo by air.
When to go
Between April and October (dry season), hurricane risk from end of December to mid-April.
The microclimate that prevails here makes it a pleasant place to visit on foot or cycling. The island retains an authentic side and has been spared mass tourism. As far as flavour is concerned, you will enjoy trying the cinnamon, vanilla, coffee, cloves or pepper…
As for sightseeing, pirates have left their mark in the bays of Antongil and Tintingue where you can visit their cemetery. I also suggest you take a walk through the virgin forest where you will discover lemurs, or admire the orchids, including the superb Queen of Madagascar.
