Where the Sea is King


Beach and Sun

With its 5000 km shoreline, exotcism is obviously at the rendez-vous. Numerous creeks, bays and beaches are inviting you not only to farniente but also to  initiation and practice of a number of activities like fishing, diving, sailing, or surf and windsurf. Whale watching is also attracting more and more adepts now.

Fishing

In the East, the people of Sainte Marie used to be, according to tradition, great whale hunters. Before embarking, the men purified themselves by staying away from their wives (miala viavy) and by sprinkling themselves with a sacred liquid called “ fankamora”. Their equipment was a harpoon linked to a rope.

Diving

Madagascar seabeds are among the best diving spots of the world. You will see an infinity of multi coloured fish with exotic names continuously drawing arabesques in a fairyland of shellfish and corals of indefinable shapes.

Surf and Windsurf

Madagascar has heavenly spots for those who have a passion for swells. At Fort-Dauphin , Vinanibe has the most beautiful waves of the region, with logistics and infrastructures for accommodation in its water sports centre.

Sailing

It is mostly concentrated in the north-west where the weather is favourable practically all the year through, except in February and March.
