Why Go?
If you're unable to decide between a discovery trip and a 'lace up your boots and forge a
new trail' kind of trip, you'll love travel in Northern Madagascar. Activity junkies will be
spoilt for choice with everything from diving to kitesurfing, while all travellers will revel in
the region's diverse landscapes.
The area around Nosy Be is Madagascar's premier beach destination, with exquisite
lodges, more sea-based activities than you'll have time to try, excellent seafood and idyllic
scenery. It couldn't be more different from the mainland, where arid plains, strange geolo-
gical formations and wind-battered coastline lend the place a frontier feel. As for the SAVA
region, those who make it to this isolated part of the country will be rewarded with world-
class trekking through primordial rainforest.
The region also hosts Madagascar's flagship cultural events, the Donia and Zegny'Zo -
unique chances to discover Malagasy artists.
