The protected areas


Insular country of the Indian Ocean, situated to the South East of the African continent, Madagascar considered as country of the "megadiverity" is baptized "sanctuary of the nature". More of 90% of Malagasy plant and animal species are endemic, unique to the world.


For the preservation of this incredible treasure represented by the fauna and the flora against the depredation caused by the man, Malagasy Authorities have put in place a protected Area system which management has been confided to the National Association for the Protected Area Management (ANGAP) .

Created in 1990 , the Angap is a Non governemental organism of support, in charge of the animation and the management of a program for the conservation of the Malagasy biodiverity . Its mission consists essentially in "establish, preserve and manage in a durable manner a national system of Park and Reserves, representative of the biological diversity or the natural patrimony proper to Madagascar".


Each portion of the territory (terrestrial, aquatic or marine) presenting a particular biological , archaeological or cultural value is designated by the State as being an Integral Natural Reserve (RNI), a National Park (PN) or a Special Reserve (RS).

There are approximately fifty (50) national Parks and Reserves in Madagascar . However , we only present in our web site the most visited national parks and those programmed in our package tours.
