Today’s journey is dedicated to visiting the little islands of Nosy Komba (including Lemur Island!) and Nosy Tanikely. First, we will take a boat to Nosy Komba, known for its many small, inhabited beaches and the emerald sea surrounding its blissful shores, with few tourists. After this, we will head to Nosy Tanikely, located about 10 km from Komba. It’s important to take advantage of the unique snorkeling opportunities here, as this island is a protected marine reserve and one of the best snorkeling sites in the area, featuring coral, numerous fish, and sea turtles. We will have lunch there before returning to the hotel in the afternoon.
