Ankify Peninsula

A lush wilderness fringed by ivory-sand beaches and azure waters, the Ankify Peninsula, at Madagascar’s northern tip, has remained largely unspoilt by tourism. The peninsula's shores are dotted with charming fishing villages and speckled with thatch-roofed huts, where life has changed very little for centuries. It’s worth spending a couple days on the peninsula en route to the spectacular islands of Nosy Be and Nosy Komba, which are top of the itinerary for many visitors. Soak up the area's authentic Malagasy culture, rich diversity of fauna and flora, Doany, where a pristine coral reef bordering the bay provides a beautiful snorkelling spot.
