We set off to the Amber Mountain, a long-extinct volcano covered by primary tropical rainforest, including craters and waterfalls. Located 40 km away from Diego Suarez, the park shelters a bewildering array of animals and plants that have specially adapted to thrive in this moist 'island' of biological diversity. Lemurs, birds, chameleons, geckos, and immense rain forest trees, are among some of the natural wonders you will encounter. The altitude of the park is between 850 and 1 475 m, which allows for some beautiful panoramas of the Diego bay area. Night at the hotel

The 3 bays are the Sakalava bay, the Dunes and Pigeons bay. It’s a quiet place with stunning white sand beaches with a nice view of the Emerald sea and the Diego Bay. One can have a stroll from bay to bay, or do it in the comfort of your 4x4 vehicle. There is also a historical side to the 3 bays : at the end of the excurions, at Cap Miné, one can see what’s left of the WWII cannons that were used during the Battle of Madagascar between the Allies and the Vichy-controlled military in Diego Suarez in 1942. We depart to Diego via Orangea, an ex-military camp, another reminder of Diego’s rich military history. Night at the hotel

From there, we embark in a motorized dinghy to reach the Emerald Sea lagoon, with its crystal-clear blue-green waters (hence its name) and its beautiful coral reefs filled with multi-colored fish. While you’ll lazily snorkel close to the beach, our guides, sometimes with the help of local fishermen, will get fresh fish that will be grilled for your pic-nic lunch. We go back to Ramena after lunch and then to Diego. Night at the hotel NB: if there is a climatic reasons this excursion is not possible, it would be replaced by another visit

Located 65 km from Diego, near the Analamera reserve, the red Tsingy are the result of a long erosion process of the red soil. The red Tsingy have nothing in common with their bigger cousins, the grey Tsingy in Ankarana, however similar the shapes might be. They are not cut out of hard rock. Instead, it’s the winds and rains over times that have produced these fragile structures. Continuation till Ankarana. Night at the hotel
