North West Madagascar

Rounding Cap d'Ambre finally brought us to the lee side of Madagascar, accompanied by white porpoises, dolphins, whales, and sloping degrees of burned earth. The throb of "humpback alley" as we renamed it was still with us when we dropped anchor in the Nosy Hara Marine park: a unique and spectacular group of rocky vertical islands in which lately a new specie of chameleon was discovered.
In the park austere golden baobabs carry witness to the resilience of life by one immaculate single flower, flowers hang to bare rock shaped by millenias of wind and wave.

Deserted red rock and dark blue waters
Peek-a-boo!
Unspoilt Madagascar
