1. The best way to leave Morondava is to fly with Air Madagascar.

2. Young and fit people instead of flying, can take a taxi brousse back to Tana or Antsirabe to save money; check: Taxi brousse.

3. If don’t have anytime to go to the beach, Morondava offers an opportunity to stay on the beach which is on the North of the city.

Also you can visit a fisher’s village of the Vezo people and know more about this nomad people who work on the sea, camp on small Islands and only go to Morondava to sell sea food. 

Sincerely,
ANDRY
