Cap Diego

Cap Diego is a peninsula within Diego Suarez bay and the location of a former French military base, including the nearby Andrakaka Navy airfield. There is a small village within a short walking distance of the cape with a church and a school as well as an interesting cave and a nice beach.

Cap Diego can easily be reached by a 20-minute boat ride from Diego harbour or by road encircling part of the bay. Tourists are charged a small entrace fee by military personnel stationed by the pier to visit the caves. Enquire at Diego harbour when the next boat goes, which usually transports villagers to/from Diego Suarez.
