Best known for
Lemurs, baobabs, the Tsingy stone forests, and extraordinary endemism — most of its wildlife lives nowhere else
The range
Eastern rainforests, the spiny south, the western baobabs and Tsingy, and the islands of the north
How to travel
A series of regional hops and lodges rather than one circuit — distances are real, the rewards rare
Marine bonus
Humpback whales off Île Sainte-Marie, July to September
When to come — honestly
When to go
April – November
Best
The dry season. Trails are open, the Tsingy and west are accessible, lemurs and chameleons are active.
December – March
Good
Hot and wet. Lush and great for reptiles and amphibians, but cyclones can disrupt the east; some roads close.
