October 05, 2022 by DRIFTING sailing adventures | Language: EN Play Time: 00:18:56 | SAILING YOUTUBERS
MADAGARSCAR’S FORGOTTEN ISLANDS!
The Barren Islands off Madagascar’s west coast is a place that will blow you away! To see people living the simplest hunter gatherer lifestyles in todays technology brimming 21st Century is something to witness!
We get to meet the local Vezo people living on these remote islands and are graciously invited into their village and homes.
Guthie (a local fisherman) trades crayfish with us for fishing tackle and diving gear while Robin tries to load his hand made speargun… Not an easy task!
The girls enjoy some snorkelling and Robin surfs Nosy Dondosy (an island north of Nosy Lava)
DISCLAIMER
Madagascar and it’s offshore islands are at the time of publishing this video closed to visiting yachts. Anyone sailing to these destinations does so entirely at their own risk.
