Madagascar is one of the planet's largest islands and shelters an incredible variety of animal and plant species. In ancient times, it was joined to Africa, but after it broke away, evolution followed its own unusual path on this immense African island. That is why, on your trip to Madagascar you can see many creatures that live on the island and nowhere else in the world. These are known as endemic species.
Madagascar is a must for travellers who love tropical and primary forests or diving on pristine coral reefs. Wildlife lovers will also be captivated by its incomparable biodiversity.
Nature and magnificent landscapes are among Madagascar’s great attractions.
A trip to Madagascar offers biology enthusiasts countless endemic birds, unique invertebrates, sea turtles and tortoises, whales, dolphins, unfamiliar reptiles (80 species of chameleon) and much more. It is home to 7 of the 8 baobab varieties and more than 3,000 fern species. Listing everything exceptional that makes Madagascar a world apart would take ad infinitum.
