Diving in MadagascarMadagascar, the world's fourth largest island, hosts one of the world's largest continuous coral reefs1. The country is famous for its unique land animals, but her seas are also full of life not found anywhere else. And she doesn't just have endemic species: around the Madagascar coast are found at least 34 types of cetaceans, 5 types of marine turtles, 56 types of shark, 300 hard corals and 1300 species of bony fish 2. Madagascar is in the Indian Ocean, off the coast of Mozambique. The cyclone season in Madagascar normally runs from January to March. Visas are required for entry to Madagascar. 30-day tourist visas may be obtained at the airport on arrival. If obtaining a visa at the airport, you should ensure that an entry stamp is recorded in your passport. There has been political unrest in Madagascar since 2009, when there was a coup. However, there are no travel restrictions in place. You should take out comprehensive travel and medical insurance before travelling.
