3 hours of crossing in which we will encounter all things that move by the sea (fishers' pirogue, heavily charged dhows, whales, whale sharks, turtles, and schooners with generous sails). Diving in passing small reefs with easy access and bit deep. We land by the beach of Anjiabe that smears its white sand along kilometers. The lagoon is superb and wild, the bush behind is enormous, and we are really the ones who will enjoy that. Farniente or jaunting in the surrounding for discovering what is hidden . In any case, the unexpected will be your ally. Aperitif, meal , chat accompany this beginning of the evening bush indeed.

Rice fields and forest immensity set back from a beach that is very different on the eve. Lemurs are often present and we will discover a bush that is still wilder. We start to know well how people live here.

Wake up as usual for setting forth the discovery of an island in the archipelago of the Radama. Nosy Bérafia. Red island with a truly Malagasy temper, Berafia is covered by hills and cultivated plains. The forest is very abundant and it expedites us in the universe of colonial planting of the latter century. We bump everywhere into people and laughing and curious children. We are between lagoon and forest, Here, pied crows are sacred ; they are thus quite present ....
Full board.
We remain based on our wonderful island and also go visiting one or two surrounding islands, diving for the fanciers or hiking in this great island of Berafia which shelters surprises. In this step of travel, everyone has taken their marks and we are quite the same : we are squarely in the trip and we should let the unexpected take its place .

We go back up northbound for discovering a kind of Malagasy fiord bordered with primeval forest that sinks into a deep mangroves' network. Depending on the tides' level, we visit what we could of this wonderful world. Beyond this amazing nature , humans are among our encounter, always, unexpected surprises , they communicate this softness , the availability and this so precious jauntiness to us. Dhows and passage schooners halt in this bay everyday, a port of call for sleeping since centuries.
Full board.
Nowadays, we get the whole day for joining Nosy Be that we will reach about 05:00 pm. We make the most of this last day. We go along great beaches, we plunge in magnificent sites and we enjoy everything within our reach. In the afternoon, we raise for the last time our heavy silk sails , for making us gliding tamely along the rigging singing. The splendid landscape, magnified by the golden light of the afternoon, do still share for some hours of happiness for having underwent this epic experience together, in the nearest of a world.
