Nosy Komba & Nosy Tanikely

Description

Be sure to read the Special Notes further down this page for important requirements and restriction.

WHAT YOU VISIT
Black Lemur Sanctuary
Located just steps from Ampangoriana, the capital of Nosy Komba, the sanctuary is home to some of the island's 5,000 lemurs. As you stroll, an informative guide will show you how to spot the males and females as they climb and jump from tree to tree. If they think there's a treat in store for them they will often jump onto visitor's arms or shoulders.

Nosy Tanikely Maritime National Park
The park may measure a mere one square mile, but what it lacks in size it more than makes up in underwater beauty. Surrounded by coral reefs, the crystal clear water is the domain of colorful parrot- and angelfish, sea turtles and other marine creatures.

PHOTO OPPORTUNITY
Postcard-perfect shots abound, from boa constrictors dangling from the trees, lemurs eating out of your hand and fish in colors that would rival a box of crayons.

LUNCH
After your dip in the inviting waters, lunch will be served on the beach.

SHOPPING
Browse for souvenirs as you make your way through Ampangoriana village, the capital of Nosy Komba.

WHAT YOU SEE ALONG THE WAY
A speed boat will head along the east coast of Nosy Be, skirting the evergreen forest of Lokobe National Park.

Special Notes:

The tour boat will make a wet landing and guests may be required to wade ashore in shallow water.

The level of guide experience varies in this location. Limited tourism infrastructure is part of the charm here, and you are trading breadth of experience for authentic interaction.
