guided forest walks (primary forest and coastal littoral forest) in search of the area's spectacular endemic wildlife are one of the primary activities

guided night walks in the coastal forest are an essential activity to see a whole host of nocturnal creatures from lemurs to amphibians and reptiles as well as birds

several shore entry snorkeling spots up and down the coast - including one right in front of the lodge - reveal a colourful marine world.

sea kayaking allows exploration of hidden secret coves and islands, and even mangrove rivers

the beach and gentle lapping waves in sheltered coves are everpresent and welcoming whether for simple walks, spontaneous swims, snorkelling or picnics

Our various pirogues, or canoes, are a great way to experience either the freshwater of the Tampolo River on a forest expedition, or the ocean offshore of camp for a sundowner cruise.

The tiny nearby village of Ambodiforaha provides an excellent opportunity to get to know the local Betsimisaraka culture through music, dance, food and agriculture.
