Google Maps has been a step ahead of the competition when it comes to offering navigation and precise details about a particular location. A week ago we saw Google offering Street View imagery of the Loch Ness river marking the anniversary of the first alleged sighting of the monster.

Users have now been treated to Street View images of the world’s oldest island, Madagascar. You can walk through the island at your leisure using Street View and check out the abundance of wildlife and flora scattered across the island. You can even take a canoe across the Sambirano river and explore the island that way.

Of course, you can also opt to view the island from a distance, which gives you a proper look of the entire island. This is an excellent initiative by Google to bring images from remote parts of the world to the users on a global level.

Google has brought these images to Street View in accordance with the Department of Water and Forests: University of Antananarivo, the Madagascar Ministry of Culture, and Madagascar National Parks.

The Madagascar Island is located in Southeast Africa. You can find the Street View images of the entire island from the link here.
