The perfect honeymoon for nature loving couples

Best known for its extraordinary wildlife, more than 80% of which is endemic, this Indian Ocean gem will provide honeymoon couples with a safari to remember. Track fascinating lemurs which are unique to the island, keep an eye out for camouflaged leaf-tail geckos and listen out for the call of sifakas echoing through Madagascar’s forests.

Add to that unspoilt landscapes, culture, and a stunning coastline fringed with tiny untouched islands, and you’re really on to something quite special!

Explore Madagascar’s authentic islands

Once you’ve spent enough time exploring the mainland and marvelling at the country’s iconic wildlife, head to one of Madagascar’s authentic islands for a spot of luxury and some blissful relaxation on white sandy shores lapped by impossibly turquoise waters!

Miavana

An ultra-luxurious, private island lodge accessed only by helicopter, Miavana offers an exclusive once-in-a-lifetime castaway experience with adventurous activities including scuba diving with dolphins to close-up encounters with sea turtles and wild lemurs.

Offering a perfect combination of adventure, conservation, and luxurious villas, celebrate your honeymoon with barefoot beach picnics and private candlelit dinners, creating memories that will resonate for years to come.

Île Sainte Marie

If you’re a marine wildlife loving couple that would like to spend some time observing humpback whales on your honeymoon, then head over to Princesse Bora Lodge on Ile Sainte Marie.  The lodge organizes whale watching experiences with an eco-guide every day from the beginning of July to the end of September when the whales migrate to the warmer waters of the Sainte-Marie channel.

Located in a UNESCO marine reserve just 30 minutes South of Nosy Be, Nosy Saba is an ecolodge set on a 320 acre private island. Nature loving duos will be entranced by the island’s endemic species including blue-eyed lemurs, exotic birds and butterflies, chameleons and much more.

Tsarabanjina

For couples that are also interested in getting married in Madagascar, you couldn’t go far wrong with Tsarabanjina, a tiny private island paradise encircled by coral reefs, and fringed by white sandy beaches backed with lush vegetation. The lodge offers excellent luxury wedding packages, and its charming thatched bungalows with uninterrupted views across the ocean will make you feel like a true island castaway.

It is difficult for non-residents to marry here legally, but couples can overcome this hurdle by carrying out the formalities at home first. If you are looking for a destination wedding location that is truly unique though; this beautiful little island really would provide a spectacular spot for your blessing or vow renewals. Maybe even consider adding a couple of lemurs as your witnesses!
