Madagascar's Northern Madagascar
Northern Madagascar
Isolated from the remainder of the country in the rugged Tsaratanana Mountains, Northern Madagascar is both one of the least populated regions as well as one of the most ethnically rich. Home to the Antakarana, the Sakalava, the Tsimihety, the Betsimisaraka and the Antandroy peoples, Northern Madagascar’s cultural introductions are almost as stimulating as its wealth of unique settings.
Painted with secluded coves, tranquil lagoons, windswept promontories, expansive grasslands and altitude rainforest, Northern Madagascar promises the spectacular vista for which you desire. And, while Nosy Be, a serene island of unparalleled sun worshiping settings, is the most notorious highlight of this region, it would be a travesty to miss the lesser known treasures of Parc National de Montagne d’Ambre, Reserve Speciale de l’Ankarana, and the fantastic rock climbing opportunities that await around Diego Suarez.
