Maroantsetra Wildlife Photography

A coastal town in northeastern Madagascar at the mouth of the Antainambalana River, the main gateway for boat access to Masoala & Nosy Mangabe.

Madagascar Tomato Frog breeds in ponds & ditches in & around the town itself, while nearby Masoala rainforest holds Helmet Vanga, Bernier's Vanga & Red Ruffed Lemur, making Maroantsetra both a destination in its own right & the departure point for the rainforest further along the coast.
