Whales journey past Madagascar on their route from Antarctica to breed in the Indian Ocean and Mozambique Channel, offering plenty of opportunities for sightings until September. On land, lemur babies are born, and trekking conditions in national parks like Bemaraha and Ankarana are ideal for hikes. Local festivals thrive during this time, especially on Independence Day (26 June), when the nation celebrates with parades, parties, and food. As July arrives, the air fills with the scent of ripening vanilla, Madagascar’s prized crop. It’s a vibrant, sunny season that draws both locals and tourists outdoors to enjoy the festivities.
