'''Baie des Dunes (Dunes Bay) is one of the many beautiful bays which can be found in northern Madagascar. The bay is very often mentioned in connection with Baie des Pigeons and Sakalava Bay, forming "''[[The Three Bays" ]]'' - a popular excursion destination in the [[Antsiranana]] region.'''

Remains of a defense construction built by the French are guarding the bay. Baie des Dunes is a wonderful place to spend a day on the beach. The north side of the bay is good for snorkelling. On the south side, there is a small picnic area in the shade of a large tree. A bit further a half-island separates Baie des Dunes from [[Baie des Pigeons]].
