Madagascar Cruises

Cruises to Madagascar

Endearingly called “the Eighth Continent” due to its incredible biodiversity, Madagascar is a nature lover’s paradise to discover the unique flora, fauna and cultures and explore vibrant landscapes truly found nowhere else.

Cruise lines with sailings around Madagascar tend to be aboard smaller ships, such as Regent, Azamara and Oceania, rather than typically larger vessels like Royal Caribbean, although Norwegian (NCL) do offer sailings taking in Malagasy ports or call.

Madagascan ports of call:

  • Diego Suarez (Antsiranana) - located towards the northern tip of Madagascar in one of the world’s largest natural harbours means unrivalled access to tropical nature reserves and scenic beaches
  • Ile Sainte Marie - famous for pirates and stunning lagoons, this charming town is also popular for whale watching between July and September
  • Mahajanga - boasting a blend of Swahili and Arabic with the local vibe, this popular port town is famous for its markets, street good and Cirque Rouge, a stunning natural rock formation
  • Nosi Be (Hell Ville) - take a trip to the idyllic Ambondrona Beach or venture inland to the natural wonders of the Cascade de Nosy Be waterfalls
  • Fort-Dauphin / Port d’Ehoala (Tolagnaro) - explore the old French colonial town before heading into the interior’s nature reserves to spot lemurs
  • Toamasina (Tamatave) - take a boat trip up the canals to soak in local life and try the incredible rustic seafood from the Malagasy vendors
  • Tulear (Toliara) - explore the stunning Great Barrier Reef of Toliara by scuba or snorkel

Cruises from Madagascar

The main cruise port for ships departing from Madagascar directly is Nosy Be, although these are infrequent.

Departure ports typically with cruises to Madagascar:

  • Cape Town

      Great service and staff

      Very friendly knowledgeable staff, I have booked with them a few times now and every member of staff has been the same. Nothing is too much trouble & no question is unaswered no matter how trivial it sounds. I'm hoping to be able to book with them for many more years. I have recommended them to my son who has now booked a cruise for next year too
