Navana is the last accessible village accessible by boat before heading into the nature in the direction of [[Antalaha]]. Starting in [[Maroantsetra]], it is also possible to reach Navana by foot or even bicycle. After a 90-minute pleasant pirogue ride along small streams and canals one arrives in [[Andranofotsy]]. From there on thereon a good foot path named "<i>Route National 5" </i> follows the coastline of the bay with nice views onto the ???island[[Nosy Mangabe]]. Thereafter the path cuts diverts into the native forest , passing the private [[Farankaraina Tropical Park Tropical de Farankaraina]], home of the rare Aye-eye lemur. The walk from Andranofotsy to Navana takes about 2 hours and 15 minutes.
