Nosy Boraha, also known as Île Sainte-Marie, is a long, narrow island off Madagascar’s northeastern coast. Its sheltered position in the Indian Ocean gives it a landscape of sandy beaches, coconut palms, lagoons, small bays, and inland forests. The island is separated from mainland Madagascar by a channel that creates relatively calm coastal waters in many areas

Cefalù is a coastal town on Sicily’s northern shore, set between the Tyrrhenian Sea and the steep slopes of La Rocca, the large limestone outcrop that rises directly behind the historic center.
