'''Antalavia or Antalaviana is located in a protected bay on the western side of Masoala Peninsula, directly at the [[Antongil Bay]] in the northeast of Madagascar. There is no real village, only a few basic fishermen huts and a very nice ecolodge along a wonderful sandy beach.'''

Whilst sitting on the beach in the early evening, one can enjoy a beautiful sunset to the monotonous sound of the waves. With a bit of luck, one can spot an [[Aye-aye]] in the night or at least hear its calling. Throughout the day, one can see brown lemurs, endemic birds, geckos and chameleons.
