Combine two of the Indian Ocean's finest island jewels in one unforgettable day: snorkel the technicolour reefs of Tanikely Marine Reserve with sea turtles, then explore Nosy Komba's hilltop lemur sanctuary and artisan villages. Pure, unhurried island-hopping at its finest.
What to expect
Your chartered vessel departs at dawn, reaching Tanikely's protected bay where green sea turtles glide below the surface alongside schools of parrotfish and lionfish. Snorkel gear and a briefing from your guide ensure safe, responsible interaction. Lunch is enjoyed aboard or on Nosy Komba's beach before climbing to the village where black lemurs drape themselves over your shoulders. Artisan demonstrations of natural silk weaving make for extraordinary souvenirs.
Good to know
Full day runs approx. 7–8 hrs; confirm all-aboard time before booking and ensure the operator knows your ship. Tanikely has a marine park entry fee included in most private tour prices — confirm when booking. Bring underwater camera, reef-safe sunscreen and sea-sickness tablets if prone to motion in open water.
