SEA
The Radama Islands are among the last accessible unspoilt areas in Madagascar. There is little tourism. Just white sandy beaches, Malagasy fishermen, and a silence that has to be earned. Nosy Be Promenade offers a complete camping trip to the Radama Islands, 3 days, 2 nights. Price on request, minimum 5 people or private excursion.

Camping and a wild archipelago
Radama Islands: what you need to know
An unspoilt archipelago
The Radama Islands form an archipelago of six islands to the south-west of Nosy Be. With few tourists, they have retained their natural state: deserted beaches, pristine reefs and authentic fishing villages. It takes several hours by boat to reach them.
Flora and fauna
The reefs of the Radama Islands are home to undisturbed marine life: turtles, rays, reef sharks and barracudas. Seabirds such as northern gannets and frigatebirds nest on the rocky islets. The coastal vegetation remains unspoilt, thanks to the lack of tourist pressure.
The exclusive experience
This camping trip is offered exclusively by Nosy Be Promenade, on a quote-only basis. Each trip is tailored specifically to the group, the season and the weather conditions.
Because every trip is unique, we tailor the experience to your preferences: a special menu, an on-board celebration or a customised itinerary. Contact us to plan your ideal day; we will let you know of any additional costs depending on the complexity of your requests.
