Upon arrival, you will be greeted by the world-famous white sandbar that connects the two islands of Nosy Iranja Be and Nosy Iranja Kely, stretching across vivid turquoise waters like a natural bridge. Climb the historic lighthouse on the larger island for panoramic views of the archipelago, snorkel in the crystal-clear waters teeming with tropical fish and sea turtles, and enjoy a delicious grilled seafood lunch prepared by your guide on the beach.

Nosy Sakatia — Sea Turtles & Marine Life

On your final day, depart by boat for Nosy Sakatia, a tranquil island just 15 minutes from Nosy Be, known for its rich marine biodiversity and peaceful atmosphere. The main attraction here is the chance to swim alongside majestic green sea turtles in their natural habitat — an experience that ranks among the best wildlife encounters in Madagascar. After your turtle swim, enjoy snorkeling over vibrant coral gardens, explore the island's lush interior, and visit a local ylang-ylang distillery to learn about the production of this prized essential oil that Nosy Be is famous for. A final lunch on the beach wraps up your 3-day signature islands experience before your boat transfer back to Nosy Be.
