We had a few beers at the Princess Bora hotel on the main island and that place seemed to have a lot of different food for slightly more expensive (as it’s a nice resort) but it’s also not on Ile Aux Nattes. Sadly, we came here at the end of September, and the whales had all but left.Ile Sainte Marie is a huge island. Would you recommend going full/half board or going for accommodation only + buying food?Hey Fab, Ile Aux Nattes really isn’t your usual beachside destination. Thanks!Kefalonia a gem in the Ionian Sea. On Ile Aux Nattes of course! Where or how did the Lemer sleep:?I stayed at hotel la pirogue. As the island is quite far (almost 2 hours), I didn’t remember seeing if they had boats big enough to take a car. Didn’t make sense fo rhim to join us as we just got around with a scooter if we needed to. The port town of Soanierana-Ivongo is about 3 hours north of Tamatave and a 1.5 hour ferry ride to Ile Sainte Marie. It just happened to bond with us and wouldn’t leave our room! Lunch was no more than 10000 Ar, and dinner I think was around 20000 Ar. The best thing about Île Sainte Marie is that it contains all the ingredients for a great holiday and great travel. Thanks!Hi, we are planning a trip to Madagascar this summer. The price was 220,000 for 2 dives (~90) which is on the more expensive end (credit cards accepted though!). Surprisingly, the shop on Ile Sainte Marie was very good! Split between two people, this isn’t a bad price, and certainly beat waiting for the overnight public taxi brousse service!Great blog and helpful info. Hope that helps!Hey Johnny! We mostly ate at where we were staying, at the Petite Traversee. That lemur was a wile but domesticated lemur so it stayed in the hotel grounds but did its own thing. The best part? An island gem located just 8 kilometres off the eastern coast of Madagascar, the narrow Sainte Marie or ‘Nosy Boraha’ as it is known locally, has a considerable amount of island charm. I have one question, me and my girlfriend are going there now, the 10th of May, wich month did you travel there?Hi Elias, was in Madagascar in September but I think May should be a good time as well! We spent a day on a scooter and headed north.
We took a boat from the dive shop to various areas of the island. Not only are their boats cheaper, but bigger and more comfortable. Tough life…One of the islands perks is it’s surrounded by reefs. Numerous deserted beaches show off a fringe of coconut palms and luscious vegetation, and intriguing inland villages make the perfect place to explore… One of the island’s most unique activities is whale watching and between July and September the channel that lies between the island and the mainland is a great place to see large groups of endangered Megaptera humpback whales. As we are traveling in a group of 8 persons it might be more practical to have our own transport then to always have to fall back on renting taxis.Hi Jeroen, from what I remember, there’s now way that these passenger boats can take a car. We were one of maybe a dozen people on the entire island during my stay.There are many hotels on Ile Sainte Marie of all price ranges, but the majority are geared towards the backpacker crowd, under 100,000 Ar a night ($40). No need for any boats to get there, a shore entry from its white sandy beaches is all that is needed. It is composed of a main island and several small islets. Walking back to La Petite Traversee at night, we saw so many fireflies which was a nice touch every night.Diving was high on the list of things to do in Madagascar. Prices are expensive (~$240 one way), so we elected to continue eastward in our 4×4 from Andasibe National Park, through Tamatave (Toamasina), to the ferry terminal at The drive east towards Tamatave again shows the geo-diversity of this island. It’s unlike anything else out thereinspired by your report, grirlfirend + me think about visiting Ile aux Nattes as well. There are a few places to stay on this island and it is all so chilled and incredibly beautiful.
Any places recommendable for getting (reasonably priced) food?
We were no match for its agility as we tried to get it out of our room that we just gave up and this lemur spent the night in our room! Loved your detailed trip blog. After a few hours of chilling at the natural pools, …
Is it also possible to rent diver equipment for a couple of days for your own instead with a whole group for a day?
The seats were small, and we had no back support so the 1.5 hour ride to the island was miserable. Ile Ste Marie, or Nosy Boraha, is a narrow granitic island 57 km long 8 km off the east coast of Madagascar. You’ll love it once you do! Especially like it when you comment on your own choices for activities (worth it or not). Love your post about your trio to madagaskar! Nevertheless, there is still enough on this island to keep us company for a few days.For the best snorkeling around, just walk into the water at this beach and start swimming. Ile Sainte Marie (also known as Nosy Boraha), a tropical island off Madagascar’s east coast, is one of Madagascar’s premier beaches and a backpacker’s paradise. One question: where did you leave your car when you went to Ile Sainte Marie? The further we got away from the main town, the more we felt like we were in the middle of nowhere (and we already felt like this in the touristy areas!) And is it possible to dive everywhere you want on the island?
This is a very long (57km), thin, lush and relatively flat tropical island surrounded by beaches and reef and spotted with thatched villages. Where did we stay? Seeing how undeveloped Madagascar was during my time, I was nervous to see what kind of dive shops could possibly exist in Madagascar. Thanks so much.
