1. Avenue of the Baobabs

Reviewed By Mikiduta - Bucharest, Romania
We have been to The Avenue twice, both at sunset and sunrise. Being low season not too many tourists were around at sunset (around 40-50) while at sunrise which was happening at 5 am we were just a few (around 10 probably). The baobabs are amazing trees that can survive without water for a long period of time. During December they had a lot of leaves because one week before it rained. The weather was great when we visited the avenue so both sunset and sunrise were spectacular. During sunset there were plenty of mosquitos around while during sunrise the flies took the places of mosquitos. Sunset was really great and we have stayed also after the sunset to take pictures during the blue hour. The sunrise was also spectacular but totally different mainly before the appearance of the sun when a mix of orange, red and dark blue was taking our pictures to another level. I am really happy that we have visited Madagascar during December because we had good weather and almost no tourists around us. Special thanks to Cactus Madagascar which organized very professionally our tour!

Nice beach culd be visited within a day but requires a good 4x4 car. Sakalava bay is one of these 3 bays and this is probably the best place for kitesurfing in the north of Madagascar.

Colorful fruits and vegetables vie with fish and even grilled lizards at this frenetic outdoor market.
Reviewed By DarwinDavid8888 - Darwin, Australia
You can buy almost anything here! For me, the attraction is the fresh fruit & vegetables. but for others, may be the seafood, the clothes, the hardware... Even if you are not buying, it's a good experience to walk around and explore the sights, sounds & aromas that make up this marketplace - not to mention the personalities you will find & see. I visited a couple of times - and did not personally have an issue - but I'd very strongly suggest you are consciously aware of pickpocketers here - plan for it before you leave your hotel, you should be OK.
