Where the rainforest meets the Ocean.
Composed of equatorial primary rainforest and three marine parks, the Masoala region is the largest protected area of Madagascar. It is one of the top five hotspots for biodiversity in the world. It contains rich vegetation and eight lemur species as well as chameleons.
This rich but fragile marine and terrestrial ecosystem is worth at least a 4-day-exploration. Masoala National Park is part of a larger landscape/seascape in and around Antongil Bay.
The Marine Reserve is surrounded by a beautiful coral reef and safe for activities.
Nosy Mangabe island, a part of Masoala contains numerous endemic species of animals and plants. It is also home for the world's smallest chameleon. In brief, Masoala is actually a paradise for nature lovers and researchers. You will end the trip by some time to relax in Sainte Marie island.

Masoala has been also classified World Heritage by the Unesco as it is part of the forest of the east (Ala Antsinanana).
