Boat trip and discovery of Nosy Iranja｜Madagascar

Your adventure begins at 8:00 AM from Madirokely Beach in Nosy Be. You will board a motorized speedboat for a memorable crossing of about 1.5 hours.
Keep your eyes peeled: the waters of the Mozambique Channel regularly host playful dolphins and, depending on the season, majestic humpback whales.
Around 9:30 AM, the magic begins. Nosy Iranja appears on the horizon, revealing its two green islets connected by an incredible strip of white sand over a kilometer long, completely submerged at high tide. As soon as you disembark on Nosy Iranja Be, you can enjoy this unique postcard setting. This is the perfect time to cross this ephemeral sandy bank, swim in crystal-clear turquoise waters, and watch the sea turtles swimming near the shore.
At 11:30 AM, it's time for cultural discovery. You will climb on foot to the island's historic lighthouse, designed by Gustave Eiffel. The trail passes through an authentic fishing village, offering a warm glimpse of local life. Once at the top, the 360-degree panorama over the vastness of the lagoon and the sandbar is simply breathtaking.
At 12:30 PM, a traditional buffet lunch awaits you in the shade of the coconut trees. You'll taste fresh local specialties: grilled fish and skewers, coconut rice, crabs, and seasonal tropical fruits, with your feet in the sand.
The afternoon is dedicated to absolute relaxation. Until 3:00 p.m., you can top up your tan, explore the seabed by snorkeling, or simply relax to the sound of the waves.
At 3:15 p.m., you bid farewell to this paradise on earth and board the boat again. The return trip allows you to admire the wild coasts of the great island of Madagascar. You dock at Nosy Be around 4:45 pm, with your head full of souvenirs and images etched in your memory forever.
