I'm not a geologist, and I had a hard time finding much information about this, but there are several unique geological sites in the area around Majunga. In many areas, the beach abuts red cliffs.
As a result of millions of years of erosion, tiny cities of 'fairy chimneys' have been constructed by Mother Nature herself. The erosion happened unevenly, leaving little vertical structures. Small pebbles ended up embedded on the top of these structures. I saw this phenomenon in two different places. It was unlike anything I have ever seen anywhere in the world.
A few days after seeing this particular site, I found myself at a place they call the 'Painted Cirque.' Here Mother Nature went even crazier, painting the rocks every colour of the rainbow.
