Whilst Madagascar’s wildlife may be the main draw, the 1800 miles of secluded coastline and idyllic beaches that surround the island are the perfect place to relax. At the coast, the edges of the tropical rainforests meet with warm golden sands, and turquoise waters lap onto the palm-fringed shores; and in certain areas, such as Ifaty, you are able to combine beach with wildlife without travelling far at all!
The laid-back coastal lifestyle is perfect for those seeking a tranquil escape while the continued immense biological diversity means there is something to interest everyone. Spend your days relaxing on the golden sands, discover the impressive coral reefs by snorkelling or diving off-shore, or marvel at the wildlife and marine life in the surrounding rainforests or from the beaches, such as turtles and whales.
The Masoala Peninsula and National Park encompasses an exceptional 2,300km2 of tropical rainforest and 100km2 of marine parks, making it the largest protected area in Madagascar and one of the most biodiverse places on Earth. From the deserted golden sand beaches at the Bay of Antongil, where majestic humpback whales can be seen gathering during breeding season, to the tumbling, lush mountainous forest with its rare endemic wildlife, the Masoala National Park is a breathtaking place to visit.
Anjajavy Private Reserve is a secluded paradise off the north-west coast of Madagascar. It is a haven for both flora and fauna – making it the ideal location for a wildlife holiday. In addition it has some of the finest beaches Madagascar has to offer meaning you can combine wildlife with a beach holiday! The Anjajavy Private Reserve can only be accessed by air due to its idyllic and remote location on Madagascar’s Northwest coast.
Its secluded location has meant that the predominantly dry, deciduous forest remains a haven for wildlife and visitors will enjoy observing a variety of rare and colourful birds, unusual reptiles, and of course many lemurs!
