Fearless travelers from Madagascar

Madagascar: Nosy Be off-limits to holidaymakers

Kayaks are available to explore the sculpted granite monoliths that seem to have been flung across the sea. Orchids are more abundant here than any other African forest; enormous clumps elegantly shroud the trees. The most famous orchid is vanilla. Indeed, most of the world's vanilla is cultivated around Masoala. However, it doesn't grow naturally here -- it's in fact native to Mexico. In Pierre and Maria opened two new private villas: Both can be reached by kayak through the tranquil, turquoise Cap Masaola lagoon.

This is real Robinson Crusoe in luxury ; the area is totally unvisited by tourists because it's so hard to get to. Pierre, however, has been kayaking here -- it's how he first found this area -- since Our final week is spent on Ile St Marie, a small island -- just 63 by six kilometers -- off Madagascar's northeast coast. Houses are stilted and thatched with big verandas and most restaurant names are the owner's family name preceded by Chez French for "at home" -- because they are just that.

You sit on someone's veranda eating a delicious home-cooked meal of zebu or chicken in a creamy vanilla sauce. We are staying at Princesse Bora , a hotel with a long infinity pool by the sea. The island is perfect for exploring by bicycle and the hotel have some available for guests. We cruise along quiet lanes, stopping at a crumbling pirate cemetery, dating back to when the island's bays were busy hideouts for pirates it's close to the East Indies trade route and a quaint Catholic church, which is Madagascar's oldest.

One day we hire quad bikes and head off to the wild east coast, along dirt tracks, past remote little villages. We continue our exploration by pirogue through mangroves and wander along beaches, where palm trees lean so far over they appear to be doing press ups into the sea. We swim in the island's lagoon, and visit Ile aux Nattes, a tiny neighboring island, even more isolated than Ile St Marie and reached by another quick five-minute pirogue ride. Back at the hotel, Fifou tells us that Malagasy people keep the northeast corner of their homes for their ancestors, so it's a special place.

It seems entirely appropriate that we have spent all our time in Madagascar's northeast, surely the most special area on this island.

I am a group of 5 people or maybe 7. We are flying into Antananarivo and will be there for 4 day tours. Highest priority is seeing all the different lemurs. We also like hiking and countryside.
