Nosy Mitsio, Madagascar

Posted on by Samir Dave

For our honeymoon, we went to an island called Tsarabanjina off the coast of Madagascar. On one of the days, we visited a few islands in the Grand Mitsio Archipelago. Nosy Mitsio was one of the few islands with a fishing village.

The people were friendly and warm smiles all around. Here are a few memories from our trip.
