Navigating the calm waters of a river, away from the noise of engines, and solely powered by the current and the steady strokes of a local paddler, is one of the most natural experiences you can have in Madagascar.

With an avifauna composed of only 290 species, Madagascar may not compete in quantity with other birdwatching destinations, but its richness lies elsewhere. More than half of these species are endemic, meaning they cannot be found anywhere else in the world. This uniqueness turns each sighting into an exceptional encounter and places Madagascar among the 15 global biodiversity hotspots.

Located in the extreme south of Madagascar, just 40 km northwest of Taolanaro (Fort-Dauphin), Andohahela National Park is a natural gem that stretches across the Anosy region, straddling the districts of Taolanaro and Amboasary-Sud.
