This, of course, won\u2019t be the case forever. Tales of its astounding natural beauty are luring in more visitors every year; over 90 percent of the stunning wildlife found here is endemic to the island.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.exoticca.travel\/africa\/indian-ocean\/madagascar\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">Travel to the Great Red Island<\/a>\u00a0to marvel at various species of cheeky lemurs in their natural stomping ground, wander through the Avenue of the Baobabs and to dig your toes into pristine white sands with a cocktail in hand.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Check out our blog post of the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.exoticca.travel\/blog\/top-things-to-do-in-madagascar\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">top ten things to do in Madagascar<\/a>\u00a0for a rundown of its unmissable gems.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Cape_Verde\"><\/span>Cape Verde<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-4102\" src=\"https:\/\/www.exoticca.co.uk\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/BLOG-FOTOS-72.png\" alt=\"A shipwreck in Cape Verde\" \/><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Lying 500 km west off the coast of\u00a0 Senegal, this cluster of islands in the Atlantic is a delightful mix of volcanoes, sweeping green valleys and lazy beachside towns. Start you trip by visiting the jutting peaks of Santo Ant\u00e3o, before letting your hair down with the locals in the charming port of Mindelo. Looking to quell your thirst for African adventure? Then look no further than Fogo. This island (meaning fire in portuguese) is literally one big volcano.\u00a0 We suggest setting off from the small town of Ch\u00e3 das Caldeiras to reach\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Pico_do_Fogo\">Pico do Fogo<\/a>\u00a0\u2013 the highest summit in Cape Verde.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Once you\u2019ve saled the craggy cliffs, mix it up a little with a trip to the idyllic beaches of Sal Island. Boasting over 350 days of sunshine every year, this slice of tropical paradise is the perfect remedy for post-hike pains.\u00a0Because, after all, you\u2019re on holiday.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Zanzibar\"><\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.exoticca.com\/us\/africa\/east-africa\/tanzania\">Zanzibar<\/a><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-4103\" src=\"https:\/\/www.exoticca.co.uk\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/BLOG-FOTOS-73.png\" alt=\"Zanzibar, Tanzania a hotspot for African beach holidays \" \/><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Zanzibar is an explosion of Arabic, Persian, Indian and African influences lapped by crystal clear waters. Unsurprisingly, Zanzibar\u2019s impressive array of idyllic beaches alone, has made it one of\u00a0 best African islands to visit. But Tanzania\u2019s most famous archipelago isn\u2019t just a one trick pony; it is also home to first-class nature reserves, exceptional reefs and old towns steeped in tales of its enthrallingly complex past.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Fancy combing the trip with a safari? No worries, our Zanzibar plus\u00a0safari travel packages\u00a0have got you covered.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Mauritius\"><\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.exoticca.com\/us\/africa\/indian-ocean\/mauritius\">Mauritius\u00a0<\/a><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-4104\" src=\"https:\/\/www.exoticca.co.uk\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/BLOG-FOTOS-74.png\" alt=\"The Idyllic Island of Mauritius\" \/><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>This palm-fringed paradise may just be heaven on earth. Unsurprisingly, this country is one of the frontrunners of the luxury travel market and a honeymoon destination favourite across the world. However, these mesmerising islands also feed the needs of explorers with staggering ease. On the island there is an abundance of thrilling boat trips, excursions to botanical gardens, first-class hiking trails and a range of extreme sports on offer.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>For a truly unique experience visit the land of the seven colours in Chamuel. This natural phenomenon is a stretch of dunes that flow with differing hues of vibrant colours. Sitting in the heart of a lush valley, the landscape is bizarre yet beautiful. Alongside the visually pleasing delights of Mauritius, sits its incredible gastronomy that boasts a heady fusion of Indian, Chinese, French and African influences.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Take a peek at our<a href=\"https:\/\/www.exoticca.travel\/blog\/whats-a-multi-centre-holiday\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">\u00a0multi-centre holidays<\/a>\u00a0to combine the magic of Mauritius with other incredible destinations.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Praslin_the_Seychelles\"><\/span>Praslin, the Seychelles<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-4105\" src=\"https:\/\/www.exoticca.co.uk\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/BLOG-FOTOS-75.png\" alt=\"The Seychelles have long been on the list of the best African islands. \" \/><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Once used as a hideout for pirates and Arab merchants, this paradisiacal island is now an extremely popular tourist destination. Again, following the trend of the other additions on this list, the island is blessed with a blissful coastline. In fact, the beaches Anse Lazio and Anse Georgette are some of the most beautiful in the world.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Due to its fame on the world stage, this African island is awash with boutique hotels and stylish restaurants. After a much-deserved pampering, mix it up with a little with a jungle adventure. We suggest venturing inland to gaze at the waterfalls and exotic wildlife of the Praslin National Park.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Feeling ready for an African island holiday?
