Ankify is a peninsula in the north-west of Madgascar, in Diana region. It's still less touristy than its neighbouring islands: Nosy Be and Nosy Komba, even though it has some places that are just as beautiful.

My suggestion:
If you are interested, there are hundreds of magical, secret creeks to explore! Lose yourself in the sight of islands floating off into the horizon in the Indian Ocean...
My review

For example, you can dive the coral reef off the village of Doany on Ankify point. You might meet some sea turtles. And in the mangroves, some dolphins...

There are lots of good ways to explore Ankify: pirogue, canoe, bike. Doany's beaches are absolutely magnificent, idyllic even, where the trees have managed to plant themselves in the big rocks. I recommend the west beach where the sun set over Tanikely is simply divine.
