Some of the island's most popular cities to stay in when visiting are Antananarivo, Sainte Marie, Toamasina, and Antsiranana.

Many citizens' and visitors' lifestyles here are centered on the outdoors and an active lifestyle. As a result, there are several outdoor activities to choose from. Whale watching is a must when visiting Madagascar. If you are heading between July and September, you may be lucky enough to witness the annual humpback whale migration on the northern island of Ile Sainte-Marie.
