Stretching for approximately 700 km along the eastern coast of Madagascar, the Pangalanes Canal is a beauty, a national treasure. Between peaceful lakes and narrow passages, it links Tamatave (Toamasina) to Farafangana, offering a striking spectacle. It was the French who, in the late 1940s, undertook to connect this succession of estuaries to create a north-south waterway, safer than the often rough and dangerous Indian Ocean.

With its whale skeleton in the courtyard, the museum itself might appear a bit outdated. However, the explanations about the maritime heritage of the region, from Fort Dauphin to Morombe, can be fascinating if you happen to meet the right guide.
