Almost all the islands, located next to Madagascar , are similar to each other. But there is one to which the flow of tourists never ends - it is called Nusi-Kumba or Nosi-Komba. What attracts here seekers of new experiences?
The main attraction of Nusi-Kumba
In translation from the local dialect, Nosi-Kumba means "island of lemurs". And indeed it is. Hardly having stepped on coast, travelers already feel, how behind them from dense forest thickets the set of attentive eyes watches are black lemurs. To see them, and also to communicate with small animals tourists from different countries come here.
On the shore, where the boat moored, there is a small settlement where bananas are sold. After all, for a lemur, this is the best treat that can melt his heart. So, armed with a viscous fruit, you can safely go to the forest, where on all sides to you, there will always be asking for paws. Children, and adults should be on guard, as curious hand-made animals can even jump on their heads. They are completely harmless, but such an element of surprise can knock anyone out of balance.
What else can you do on Nusi-Kumba?
After talking with the lemurs, you can go fishing. The fish here are unusual, outlandish, not that familiar to all of us karassi and perch. Fortunately, it is all edible, and the catch can then be fried on charcoal. If you take with you everything for a picnic, you can spend a wonderful day on the beach, swimming, sunbathing and enjoying the beauty of the island. But in the afternoon it is desirable to start off, as by the evening the ocean usually becomes restless.
How to get to the island of lemurs?
From Madagascar, various vessels are constantly moving in the direction of Nusi-Kumba. These are pleasure boats, and private yachts. Convenient, and then, and more. With the ability to use the vessel you can plan your own day, and if there is no such possibility, it is better to negotiate with the captain of one of the boats about the delivery in both directions.
