June 1st, 2016 — The Tsingy are emblematic of journeys to Madagascar. Whether marine or terrestrial, these geological formations rank among the most extraordinary natural wonders on the planet.

Ubiquitous across the western reaches of the Great Island, the Tsingy captivate travellers' imaginations. The Tsingy of Bemaraha to the west, the Tsingy of Ankarana in the northern region, or further afield and more challenging to access, the Tsingy of Namoroka south of Majunga offer landscapes that are utterly unique and spectacular.

These isolated formations also provide remarkable opportunities to discover fauna and flora that are specific—even endemic—to these regions.

Well-designed itineraries have been established to explore this extraordinary world with complete peace of mind.

The marine Tsingy are less widely known, yet equally breathtaking. They present landscapes of singular beauty, with jagged rock pinnacles of fantastical shapes rising from the waters. Depending on the location, they may be crowned with red baobabs and other pachypodiums, as seen in Moramba Bay and Kamanjara north of Majunga, or at Nosy Hara west of Diego.
