Fort Dauphin or Taolagnaro

The Anosy Region marks the transition to a new natural and human environment. Here, mountains flow into the sea, mighty rivers flood the landscape before reaching the Indian Ocean. Every time we travel, we feel the same feeling in front of these elements, an incredible feeling of silent strength. Fort-Dauphin or Tolagnaro is located at the foot of Pic Saint Louis, facing the Indian Ocean. The tranquility of this provincial town is soothing, perfect for a healthy recovery after this beautiful escape. We are located 1,122 km as the crow flies from Tana, the capital in the highlands.
