Discover

Le Djebel Amour 

“Our boat, a trimaran, is an unsinkable family cruising yacht.

Built from aluminium, measuring 16.50 m long and 9.20 m wide, it offers unrivalled comfort and spaciousness in Madagascar.

This yacht has been sailing the Indian Ocean for 20 years.

Purchased in 2010, it was fully restored in 2014 to provide greater comfort and enhanced safety.”

On deck

An exceptional space

“On board, with its 42 m² cockpit and 60 m² sun deck, the Djebel Amour offers generous outdoor spaces where you can fully enjoy the sailing experience.

The king-size bench seat, shaded by the awning, is perfect for relaxing, while the large adjustable table lets you enjoy meals overlooking the horizon.”

Inside

Comfort at sea

“Sheltered from the occasional tropical showers, the saloon can accommodate up to 8 guests in an elegant setting, where teak woodwork and copper lighting create a warm atmosphere.

The spacious chart table evokes a sense of adventure, while the L-shaped galley, separated by a bar, provides a welcoming space to gather and socialise.

The cabins offer 2 metres of headroom, providing exceptional comfort at sea.”

Travel...

Breathtaking landscapes

“Our boat,

The Djebel Amour sails from Mahajanga to Courrier Bay. Hundreds of kilometres of unspoilt coastline and numerous archipelagos (Nosy Hara, Mitsio, Radama, etc.) offer secluded anchorages where peace and tranquillity provide a true sense of escape.

Charming, isolated coastal villages offer the opportunity to meet authentic and welcoming local communities, renowned for their kindness. Along the way, you will encounter the Vezo people (nomads of the sea) in their outrigger canoes, keeping their many traditions alive.

Be responsible

Our commitment

“The values of the Djebel Amour involve our entire team in a commitment to responsible tourism and quality service for our guests.

We place particular emphasis on:

Raising travellers’ awareness of local customs and traditions, and respecting Fady (local prohibitions or taboos),
Environmental issues, including waste and resource management,
Respecting Madagascar’s wildlife and natural environment, as well as practising responsible fishing on board.

The Djebel Amour supports local development initiatives and contributes to community and solidarity projects.”
