Anakao
The Vezo village facing the reef pass, at the end of the RN7 — accessible by boat only.
Anakao is a Vezo fishing village facing the reef pass, south of Tuléar — the only way in is by boat, and that’s part of its charm. White beaches, a sheltered lagoon, outrigger canoes at anchor: the dream end of the road to finish the RN7.
Offshore, Nosy Ve island is home to a colony of red-tailed tropicbirds; the waters are well suited to snorkeling as well as diving.
