Too short - We booked an excursion with Sound’s: by bus we arrived at the port and then we took a boat ... very beautiful forest seen from the sea ... after sprinkling our bodies with lemongrass oil, which does not bother animals like our autan, we left for our walk through the forest. There is a path that with an up and down leads from one point to another... the guides of the group were in shorts and short sleeves and bare feet, perhaps to make less noise: one behind the line, one in front and two off the path to look for animals to show us. Very beautiful vegetation too, we saw camuflage gekis, dwarf gekis, two boas, nocturnal lemurs and black diurnal lemurs. The latter of course can be seen from afar because up there on the foliage, but it is natural. We didn't see frogs or chameleons. We walked for about 1 hour ... to my taste I would have done more ... the trip is respectful of nature, but clearly it is less “fun” than it can be for example Lemurialand, where lemurs climb on your head and approach to eat bananas. We continued with the visit to a Village and the only baobab on the island, which is not the classic specimen you see in the photos, then we had a great lunch in a beautiful village, surrounded by mangroves, with a small outdoor restaurant Villa Ti punch, run by a French gentleman and his Malagasy wife who created their activity in the mangroves. Great place to swim in privacy (there was only our group). Strikingly clean bathrooms, spectacular coconut rice!
