Nosy Komba

Nosy Komba is a small island off the northwest coast of Madagascar, located a short boat ride south of Nosy Be.

Understand
Nosy Komba is a small volcanic island almost equidistant between Hell-Ville on the neighbouring island of Nosy Be and Ankify on the mainland. The beaches are clean and excellent for snorkelling. The island is known for its population of black lemurs.

Get in
The only way to get to Nosy Komba is by boat. Trips from Hell-Ville take 20-30 minutes, and can be arranged through the lodge you are staying with.

Get around
There are no roads on Nosy Komba, so you'll either need to take a boat or walk. Trails across the island inevitably involve a hike up and over the peak at the center of the island.
