South Madagascar - Madagascar

The southern region of Madagascar is the most famous part of Madagascar, its contrasting rainforest, spiny forest and alien-looking cactus ridden. South Madagascar is a place that elephant bird eggs can be found, where locusts swarm in their millions, and where the Mahavy tribe reside, known for their intricate and enormous tombs.

Some of the most fascinating places to visit in South Madagascar are Manafiafy, which is on the southeast coast, north of Taolagnaro; Ifotaka Forest Conservancy, on the southeast of the island, by the Mandrare River; and Toliara, a small seaside town on the southwest coast.
