In paradise in Nosy Iranja - Excursion to Nosy Iranja made with Cosimo +261326834419 Contacted from Italy via wa, he organized everything excellently He speaks Italian very well On board a motorboat we first went to Nosy Antsoa to see the lemurs and then we went to Nosy Iranja...a paradise The water of all possible shades of blue is warm and makes swimming very pleasant, furthermore the sand is so fine that it looks like talcum powder The strip of land that connects the two islands disappears around midday at high tide Thanks to Cosimo we had lunch by the sea based on lobster, shrimp, crabs, zebu, rice and fruit In short, a simply perfect day in paradise, pampered by Cosino who did everything to make our excursion unforgettable I leave his number to contact him +261326834419

A STUNNING BEAUTY - Day trip from Nosy Be to this tropical paradise. These are two islands which at low tide are connected by a strip of very white sand (about 1.5 km long) which disappears at low tide. A truly unique place. I consider myself a decent world traveler but I had never seen a place like this. Incredible colors of the sea, at low tide, in addition to the main strip of sand that connects the two islands, other secondary strips and islets of pure sand emerge which leave isolated small lagoons and glimpses of the sea with incredible colors and very warm water. If paradise exists, it must be something similar, a phrase that I have already heard and seen in other reviews, but which came to me spontaneously as soon as I arrived in this singular place. For me it is one of the most spectacular natural wonders on the planet.

Iranja from a Cruise Ship - We visited Iranja from a cruise ship anchored off Nosy Be. Max met us at the tender and took us for a 90 min, bumpy boat ride to Iranja, a beautiful ribbon of sand connecting 2 islands. Warm blue and emerald water on both sides. We could only spend a half day as the cruise ship was anchored only from 10 to 5. We had sufficient time to walk the sand bridge, swim and enjoy a huge spectacular local lunch. Max always had water and snacks at hand. Well worth the trip.

Good visit to make - Unmissable boat trip on Nosy Iranja with its strip of sand between the two islands and the meal prepared on site. You can book the day before directly with the small Malagasy agencies on site. It's about 130 to 140,000 ariary per person for an outing with a meal.
