ARRIVE AT NOSY BE

7:00 am - 4:00 pm


Nosy Be is Madagascar's premier resort island, and several other smaller islands including Nosy Komba, Nosy Tanikely, Nosy Sakatia, Nosy Mitsio and Nosy Iranja are nearby. Nosy Be is popular with people looking for a resort-style holiday, as it has plenty of restaurants and nightspots, although you can dive in some excellent spots off some of the smaller islands. While there are relatively few scantily clad package tourists to contend with, Nosy Be is still horrendously expensive. Andoany ('Hell-Ville' in French) is the capital, and is a bright and pleasant town (despite its name) of 30,000. You can visit the old prison, built in 1855, and other colonial buildings, and the town feels as if little has changed since the French first arrived.

01.03.2025

AT THE SEA


Feel the joy of being in the sea during your cruise! Let the waves rock you gently, like a cozy hammock. Whether you're soaking up the warm sun on the deck or splashing in the cool water, every moment is full of fun. Look around and see nothing but endless blue, like a giant blanket wrapping you up. It's a time to relax and enjoy, where every smile becomes a special memory. Soak it all in and let the sea breeze tickle your cheeks.

This is what makes cruising so awesome, simple pleasures in a big, beautiful ocean.
