Mahavavy - Kinkony Wetland Complex (2)



In the Tsiombikibo Classified Forest, near Mitsinjo, are several small beautiful ponds which are the refuge of white-backed ducks and African pygmy geese.

Mitsinjo is the capital of the district but the gateway town is Namakia.



It is a tough place to access independently .
The port of Namakia may be reached in five or six hours by motorboat from Mahajanga but the sea is usually quite rough.
Alternatively, from Katsepy it is three to four hours drive, but the road beyond Mitsinjo is in poor condition and closed during the rainy season.



The town of Mitsinjo has some very basic accommodation and camping is possible too.
The best option in Namakia is La Cercle, with budget and mid-range rooms.

Contact Asity for the latest information on places to camp.
