Ile Sainte Marie beach

Ile Sainte Marie is the second popular beach destination in Madagascar. It is also good here as in Nosy Be, but without crowds. However, keep in mind that it is the east coast of Madagascar, so there is more chance of being attacked by a shark. Sea urchins can also be met on the bottom, but the hotels usually remove them quickly. Shore and seabed: sand. [edit]
